Hi everyone!
So, unlike a lot of other posters here I can speak, read, and write Japanese (though I should probably get an N2/N1 to prove it). I am a newly barred attorney in the state of Texas, but I didn’t go to a top 3 school.
I’m not actually asking for the immediate term, but ever since we’ve been dating my wife and I have talked about moving to Japan one day, and today I thought I should actually look into it a little closer.
My wife is a Japanese native and citizen, so based on other things I’ve read that looks like a plus off the bat and I can communicate well in Japanese (though I have no certifications). I did study abroad in
Japan twice in college and I wrote a paper about the Saiban-in seido in law school which I might be able to get published (but that’s a stretch).
If I were to move to Japan, I wouldn’t turn up my nose at pretty much any decent work, it need not be connected to the legal world at all. I just want to know how realistic it is I would be able to find a job.
