Is there a list of good lawyers in Japan who speaks fluent English who can support visa and Permanent Residency after 1 year applications?

Hi all

I'm in a slightly unusual and very fortunate position, I have the option of transfering my job to Japan and looking at the Permaent Residency points I think I should be elligible for at least 80 points to qualify for Permanent Residency after 1 year based on this tool I've seen recommended here before https://japanprcalculator.com/

I want to talk to a lawyer to make sure I've understood the points system correctly before I make any big life decisions. I don't see anything in the wiki about how to find a lawyer, I guess I'm looking for either personal recommendations based on experience or recommendations of how to find one.

Just for reference my work would be in Yokohama and I'd probably live in Tokyo or Yokohama, but I'm not sure if it matters where the lawyer is based?

Its for an international organisation who work in English who can sponsor me, I speak some conversational Japanese from previous trips, but obviously I'll do courses before I move there if it all works out.

Thanks 🙂
