I hope the question isn’t out of idle curiosity — because this answer is money in your pocket if you’re actually contemplating of working in the legal field in Japan.Different legal universe altogetherThe first point to realise is that jurisprudence, legal framework and the legal profession between Japan and the UK are completely different from each other.The short and sweet is that the UK law degree will be useless for practising Japanese law in Japan. You simply have to get “dual qualifications” — Japanese legal qualifications by going through the Japanese pathway.Therefore, the pragmatic option is to practise UK law in Japan as a registered foreign lawyer with the Japan Federation of Bar Associations (JFBA).Bird’s eye view of the Japanese legal systemJapan is classified as a Civil Code country. Its overall legal system is modelled on the German one of pre-First World War days.That German model remains the foundation of the Japanese criminal legal system.For the Japanese commercial legal system, it is a unique hybrid of the civil law model of pre-WW1 Germany grafted with the common law aspects of the USA. In short, Japanese corporate, civil rights, securities regulation, tax and labour laws carry strong overtones of the U.S. legal model.The Cabinet appoints the members of the Supreme Court, which presides over a court system of the High Court, district courts, family courts and summary courts (magistracies).Judicial precedents provide non-binding guidance as to how statutory interpretation should be carried out. Judges do seriously consider precedents, even though they are non-binding.In court practice, Japan technically conducts juryless trials. However, that is not an entirely true picture. Japanese juries are in the form of a panel of “lay judges” that “assist” the judicial (professional) judge.Bird’s eye view of the legal professionThe Japanese legal profession is incredibly tiny.There are only 30,000 licensed Japanese lawyers for a population of 127 million. Nearly half of them entered practice since the late 1990s. The profession is male-dominated, with only 12%–13% being women. There are plenty of horror stories recounted by women working as lawyers in Japan.For context, the U.S. state of Missouri (pop. 6.9 million) alone has 30,000 attorneys. In the UK (pop. 67 million), the England and Wales jurisdiction alone has 120,000 solicitors. In Hong Kong (pop. 7.5 million), there are 10,000 solicitors and barristers.The Japanese legal profession is ‘fused’ (like the U.S. profession) — unlike the split profession of the UK with solicitors and barristers.The Japanese-qualified lawyer is the bengoshi (弁護士 ‘advocate’). The bengoshi is held in high esteem both professionally and socially.The registered foreign lawyer is colloquially termed gaiben 外弁 (‘outside speech’) — the official term being gaikokuho jimu bengoshi 外国法事務弁護士 (“attorneys at foreign law”). They practise the law of their own jurisdictions but not Japanese law — although I’m not too sure that is the reality. There are only 380 or so gaiben at foreign law firms in Japan.Don’t bother with the oddity known as junkaiin (準会員 ‘quasi-member,’ i.e. quasi-member of the Japan Federation of Bar Associations). It doesn’t exist anymore because it was abolished in 1955. There’s been only one junkaiin ever in existence, and he was last on the JFBA rolls in (what?) 2011.The big foreign/multinational law firms that hire both Japanese bengoshi and foreign gaiben are:—Morrison & FoersterWhite & CaseOver the past 10 years, some foreign law firms (notably Linklaters, Allen & Overy, and Herbert Smith) have downsized or even dissolved their bengoshi teams and instead relied on referrals from the so-called “Big Five” Japanese law firms.Two realistic options for the foreign lawyerThe education and licensing requirements for a foreigner to become a Japanese lawyer is practically insurmountable. So the vast majority of foreign lawyers in Japan avoid doing the impossible and instead do one of these two things:—EITHER obtain a gaiben licence (外国法事務弁護士)OR get affiliated with a licensed multinational law firm (弁護士法人)Option A — Attorney at foreign law (gaiben)Many foreign lawyers in Japan can attest to the general truth of the below.Getting the gaiben licence is a saga in most cases, but it’s the closest to being an independent lawyer in Japan as one could get.The biggest problem with the gaiben licence is its requirement of prior practice — and it’s prior law-firm practice to avoid any ambiguity.If memory serves, the Japanese Ministry of Justice ‘prefers’ (read: requires) the gaiben applicant to have PQE 4+ in his/her home jurisdiction prior to the application — at least four years post-qualification experience. If you don’t have the home PQE, then you simply won’t ever qualify for gaiben.That means law firms of any kind in Japan just won’t hire anyone who hasn’t already met the gaiben requirements from day one.So many foreign lawyers wanting to get the gaiben licence kick off by working as an in-house lawyer for some Japanese company for a few years. But there are horror stories. The worst-case scenario I’ve heard most often is the foreign lawyer is stuck in some stupid company with the wrong kind of corporate culture or bureaucracy, hitting the glass ceiling, doing too much translation work and not enough ‘law,’ and nothing to broaden the skills.Option B — Affiliate with ‘BigLaw’To cut a long story short, your chances are conditional on two things to attract entry into Big Law:—done well both in law school and in practice to be an attractive candidatedemonstrating a commitment to Japan — in short, simply being in Japan at your own expense (more usual) or through some kind of overseas law study programme (if you’re still in law school).The scenario I’ve heard fairly regularly enough is a law degree plus a master’s degree in Japanese (with a focus on Japanese law) with in-situ Japan time for one or two summers. In short, the in-situ Japan time (usually in Tokyo) often gets transformed into an actual job opportunity (perhaps as a summer intern position).Option C — the ‘standard’ legal qualification pathwayThis is how to become a Japanese lawyer the Japanese way:—Do a Japanese law degree at a Japanese university — graduate degree, ca. 3 years, entry requires an undergraduate degreePass the Japanese national Bar exam (shiho shiken 司法試験)Complete a one-year internship — supervised by the Japanese Supreme Court via its Shiho Kenshujo 司法研修所 (Legal Training and Research Institute)Japanese citizenship is not required to qualify as an attorney.The Japanese law degreeAs is the case in the USA, law in Japan can only be studied at the graduate level.Let’s not exaggerate. The law programmes in Japan are meant to produce politically dependable personnel to fill various government administrative positions as high-level civil servants, judges and prosecutors.The Bar examFacts about the Japanese national Bar exam:—It’s the world’s toughest law exam.Law school requirement — the candidate must have graduated from a full graduate Japanese law programme at a Japanese law school.Bar exam to be taken within 5 years after graduation, or else the candidate has to restart by going back to law school for another 2–3 years.Maximum 3 takes, or you’re off the grid and have to restart from law school again.The official pass rate is 20% of intake, but most lawyers in Japan will say the reality is more like 10%–15% pass rate. So the Japanese law schools are marketing themselves on their supposed higher Bar pass rates — probably a more honest and less surreal reason than the rubbish reasons used by U.S. and UK law schools.Around 40,000 people take the Bar exam annually, and around 1,000–1,400 pass it.The Bar exam is in two stages (three in my day before 2006):—The first stage (May) is a one-day short-answer exam on the six heads of law, including administrative law.The second stage (July? October?) is a three-day essay exam on public law, criminal law and civil law, including ‘electives’ chosen by the candidate (e.g. labour law, environmental law, etc).Non-law graduates may take the Bar exam after passing a preliminary qualifying exam (Yobi Shiken) — I don’t have this information.Around 40,000 people take the first stage every year. From that, only 7,000 qualify for the second stage. From that, around 1,000–1,400 pass the whole exam.Those who failed the Bar exam can still become a judicial scrivener — pretty much the same as a licensed lawyer with the same amount of office work but much less courtroom work (and certainly lower prestige).I never met a Japanese judicial scrivener in my life, so that must mean it’s less than mud to be one.Thanks for the A2A.
