Australian Lawyers in Japan

Leila Chalk • Nov 11, 2019

Australian Legal Issues faced by the Expat Community and how to resolve them. 

Sometimes, you need your lawyer to come to you. Over the next three weeks we will be touring Japan and catching up with Australian expats to chat about all things legal. 

We often get told about the niggling issues that need a face to face resolution - documents that need to be verified, witnessed, signed off, and advised on. We know that wasting your holiday back in Australia dealing with legal issues can be a nightmare, so we are making ourselves available to those who may need a helping hand while we are in Japan. 

For all those things that do not need a face to face resolution, it still feels really good to take the time and meet your lawyer. If you have been holding back in resolving an Australian dispute, sorting out your paperwork, an de-cluttering your life - this is the right time to make an appointment with one of our team. 

Leila Chalk, the solicitor on tour, has been practicing for eight years in areas of property law, civil litigation, and commercial drafting. She is able to assist with business advisory matters, as well as succession planning, wills and estates. Supported by a team of lawyers back in Melbourne, Australia across three offices, she is able to make quick work of the legal issues faced by Australian expats.
