-Post-event update–:

We are pleased to share that the Japan-Australia Cross Border Inheritance Seminar, as previously announced, was successfully held on November 6 and 8, 2024, in Melbourne and Sydney.

Our firm’s partner, Ken Takahashi, took the stage as a speaker on Japanese legal matters.

The events were well-attended, with approximately 40 participants registering for the Melbourne session and about 80 for the Sydney session.

At our firm, we specialize in assisting with matters related to Japanese assets, working closely with Australian lawyers who specialize in wills and inheritance law and Japanese tax accountants specializing in international inheritance tax.

Our expertise includes drafting wills involving Japanese assets, handling inheritance procedures in Japan after the commencement of an inheritance, mediating inheritance distribution agreements among heirs, and assisting with renouncing inheritance where necessary.

If you have any inquiries or require assistance, please feel free to contact us anytime.

Finally, for your reference, the details of the seminar on the day are introduced here (H&H Lawyers’ LinkedIn page, which I worked on together).
