English-speaking lawyers in Sapporo

Where these came from

11 of the 19 come from a United States embassy or consulate. The others come from the UK Foreign Office's Find a professional service abroad (4) and the Japan Federation of Bar Associations' lawyer search (4). The US Consulate General in Sapporo publishes this list of attorneys in Hokkaido and northern Tohoku, with the languages each one works in. Some of these are listed on the UK FCDO's Find a professional service abroad, which lists lawyers abroad and says every one of them has confirmed it can provide services in English. Some of these lawyers are on ひまわりサーチ, the lawyer information service run by the Japan Federation of Bar Associations and each local bar association, where the lawyer states the foreign languages they work in. Languages the lawyer qualifies as conversational, basic or through an interpreter are left out.

All 19 sit on an official list, published by a body with nothing to sell.
