Legal Futures was founded in 1999 and is a dedicated legal and compliance boutique consultancy that operates from offices in Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore. We offer in-depth coverage with a premium personalised consultancy service acting for international law firms, leading American and European investment banks and other employers of choice across all sectors of industry and commerce.

What differentiates you from your competitors?

The majority of our consultants are lawyers admitted in a variety of jurisdictions including New York, England & Wales, New Zealand and Hong Kong and all of them are rapidly able to understand their clients' legal and compliance requirements, whilst developing a strong relationship of trust with their candidates. We are proud that the majority of our clients and candidates come from personal referrals.

As a small, boutique operation we are able to offer a level of personal care and attention to our candidates that larger organisations are unable to provide whilst still having access to the very best jobs in the market.

What level of service can candidates expect from you?

We recognise that as a Legal Futures' candidate you are our greatest asset and from the very beginning we want to establish a relationship with you based on mutual respect, trust and professionalism. The process of matching candidates with suitable positions is sometimes a complex one and we will assist you at every step by offering accurate market and salary information, resume and interview tips and in addition we will negotiate for you the best salary available.

We undertake that our service will at all times be:

• Dedicated
• Focused
• Confidential
• Professional
• Effective

What type of people are your clients looking for?

Our clients are always looking for the best legal and compliance talent, you will generally need to be bilingual and have extensive on-the-ground experience in Japan.
