After graduating with a degree related to physics, I worked for more than ten years as an engineer at a manufacturing company. I went on to pass the patent attorney exam, became a patent attorney, and manage a patent firm. It was only after all this that I took and passed the national bar examination and became an attorney at law. Thanks to my background, I have an interest in intellectual property and especially patents.



If a company has intellectual property, surely the hopes and expectations of many individuals are included in that—one hopes that the intellectual property they've created can be used to change society for the better and make people happy. When it comes to looking after the hopes of each individual, there is no difference whether the case at hand is a matter of IP litigation, a general civil suit, a family affairs arbitration, or a criminal case. Even though I come from a particular area of expertise, by grappling with various cases without being partial to a certain type, I strive to be an attorney who can look after the hopes of each person I work with.
