Exclusivity And The Japanese Bar: Ethics Or Self-Interest?, David Hood Jan 1997

Exclusivity And The Japanese Bar: Ethics Or Self-Interest?, David Hood

Washington International Law Journal

The Japanese bar maintains that ethical considerations mandate a low admission rate. However, the bar's limit on the number of lawyers in Japan has socioeconomic effects that extend beyond the legal profession. Also, because there are too few Japanese lawyers, "quasi-lawyer" legal substitutes have emerged to satisfy pent-up demand for legal services. This comment suggests that the Japanese bar should expand its membership in order to address the shortage of legal services in Japan. An expanded bar could also address many of Japan's hidden socioeconomic ills.
