Thinking that there was nothing I could do, I searched for a lawyer on the internet, and consulted him over the phone and in person, but Dr. Higuchi was able to accurately understand my intentions and immediately suggested a countermeasure. I decided to do it. I was worried that it would take a long time to resolve the matter, but since I was told that there is a lawyer I have close ties with overseas, the unknown heir was quickly found, negotiations went smoothly, and the matter was resolved in a short period of time. 1. Speed of understanding the purpose of the request. 2.International network. 3. Appropriate situation reporting. 4. Quick response to questions and consultations. This was my first time hiring a lawyer, and he was very helpful. If there is anything I need to do in the future, I would like to ask Mr. Higuchi. (Bengo.com)
While searching for an international lawyer to enter into a management contract with a foreign hotel chain, I was fortunate enough to meet Attorney Higuchi and secured an advisory contract with him in 2013. Among all the Japanese individuals I know, including those from foreign companies, Attorney Higuchi stands out with his English proficiency, especially his negotiation skills in English. He is strategic, possesses great judgment and decision-making abilities, and is quick to respond—even when emailed late at night. Above all, he has an extensive network and a commendable character. Not only clients but also peers in the industry hold him in high regard. I am a big fan of Attorney Higuchi. Our company not only manages hotels but also real estate and restaurants. We consult with Attorney Higuchi, who has a broad range of knowledge, on everything from customer complaints, real estate issues, drafting contracts for new real estate purchases, to personal matters. Although our company is located in a regional city, whenever there's an issue, Attorney Higuchi is always willing to fly in from Tokyo to support us, for which we are truly grateful. (Bengo.com)
