Takashi Kanai's “Edogawa City Information”

Author: Takashi Kanai (Profile: Edogawa City Council Member, Lawyer, Visiting Researcher at Musashino University Law Institute)  

Hello everyone, I am Takashi Kanai, your Edogawa City Council member.

Along with my work as a city council member, I also work as a lawyer and an administrative scrivener (Gyoseishoshi).  Today, I would like to share information about a "Free Consultation for Foreign Residents" organized by the Administrative Scrivener Association, Edogawa Branch.

I believe it is very important for specialists—like administrative scriveners, judicial scriveners, and lawyers—to offer free initial consultations.  This is a great way for us to use our professional skills to help the community (often called *pro bono* work).

The Edogawa Branch of the Tokyo Administrative Scrivener Association is holding a free consultation event supported by Edogawa City.  If you are a foreign resident living in Edogawa City and have questions, please feel free to join!
