A group of delegates from our firm, namely, James Jung, Tin-Lok Shea, John Kim, and MARTIN POLAINE, FCIArb FAIADR, recently attended the Inter-Pacific Bar Association (IPBA) Annual Conference in Chicago. The IPBA community has always been a collegiate and engaged group, and this year was no exception – the conference was a great opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces, exchange ideas, and build new connections across jurisdictions. The energy of the host city was on full display, from incisive keynote speeches and thoughtful panel discussions to a standout welcome reception at Wrigley Field, where the Cubs edged out the Dodgers (much to the disappointment of many Shohei Ohtani fans in attendance). We are proud to share that James Jung was announced as the Vice-President of the IPBA, with the 2027 conference planned to be hosted in Sydney (where he will officially become President). This is an enormous achievement culminating from years of dedication and contribution to the IPBA, and reflects James’ esteemed position within the IPBA community built upon the deep professional ties and friendships he has cultivated with colleagues from across the Asia-Pacific region. Tin-Lok Shea was also appointed as the IPBA Jurisdictional Council Member (JCM) for Australia, a senior leadership position representing the IPBA within the allocated jurisdiction. This is well deserved by Tin-Lok and his nomination was hugely supported by the IPBA Officers at the recent Council Meeting in Chicago. A huge congratulation to both James and Tin-Lok, who are looking forward to contributing to the IPBA’s mission of supporting legal development and collaboration of lawyers across the Asia-Pacific.

H & H Lawyersはこのたび、オーストラリア日本の弁護士法人「賢誠総合法律事務所」、税理士法人「山田＆パートナーズ」、および日豪会計事務所「ブリース洋子公認会計士事務所」と共催で、遺産相続法に関するセミナーを開催いたしました。 ご参加いただきました皆様に、心より御礼申し上げます。参加者の皆様、ならびに共催者の皆様のご協力のおかげで、大変有意義で充実したセッションとなりました。 日本とオーストラリアの両国に資産をお持ちの方々にとって、それぞれの国の相続法の違いを理解しておくことは非常に重要です。相続は多くの場合、差し迫った状況にならない限り意識されにくいテーマですが、実際に問題が生じた際に日豪の異なる法制度に直面することは、大きな精神的・経済的負担となりかねません。そのようなリスクを避けるためにも、事前の準備と適切な計画が不可欠です。 相続や遺言に関するご相談がございましたら、どうぞお気軽に当事務所までお問い合わせください。

Thank you The Japan Times for featuring our firm’s role in fostering stronger economic ties between Australia and Japan. This follows recent coverage of our firm in Korea’s Legal Times. With the Australian Government's announcement of the Future Made in Australia economic plan, we believe we are strategically well-positioned to serve as a bridge between Australia and the broader Asia-Pacific region. A strong and prosperous Australia is only possible through robust, mutually beneficial relationships with our Asian neighbours, and we are committed to strengthening these partnerships. We are seeing growing interest in Australia as a secure and forward-looking investment destination, particularly from Japan. Our bilingual Japan Desk team led by Yukio Hayashi and Tin-Lok Shea is well-equipped to provide comprehensive legal support, including corporate M&A, regulatory, compliance, dispute resolution, commercial contracts, employment, immigration, and foreign investment. We look forward to supporting both our existing and new clients in navigating the opportunities ahead in Australia. You can read the articlehere.

セミナー
On 17 April 2024, H & H Lawyers hosted a seminar on the topic "Japan/Australia Cross-border Employment – Legal Issues for a Mobile Workforce"in collaboration withthe Australia-Japan Society of NSW Inc. (AJS-NSW). Our Tin-Lok Shea and Ueda Daisuke, and Ken Takahashi of Kensei Law Office (Kyoto), gave presentationsaddressingsome ofthe legal pitfalls arising from cross-border employment between Australia and Japan.It was particularly enlightening having Mr Takahashi provide his insights as Japan qualified lawyer ("bengoshi"). The seminar was well-attended by AJS members and generated plenty of discussions afterwards duringa networking session over cheeseandwine(handpicked by our very own sommelier, Ueda Daisuke).Since 1996, we have been advising many Australian and Japanese companies in relation to their inbound and outbound cross-border transactions across a wide range of industry and business sectors such as property, retail, biomedical, construction, energy, financial services, education, franchise, hospitality, mining and manufacturing.

We are delighted to share with you that Tin-Lok Shea has been made Partner effective 8 December 2023. Tin-Lok began his journey with us during his law school days. His fluency in Japanese, as well as his innate understanding of both Australian and Japanese ways of conducting business and applying the law, have made him a valuable member of our firm. After graduating, Tin-Lok began his professional career at KPMG specialising in corporate tax for about 6 years. He then made a move to Deloitte advising clients in state taxes and FIRB matters. He was promoted to Account Director within 4 years there before making a big decision to return to H&H Lawyers in 2017. We were grateful for his return as our firm and clients immediately reaped the benefits of his skills and knowledge. He quickly made great contributions, looking after our clients in all facets of their legal needs. Tin-Lok’s legal expertise, especially in corporate and commercial matters, are second to none. He is in high demand for his calm yet determined approach in a number of litigious matters. One of Tin-Lok’s long-term clients sent us this meaningful message on his promotion to Partner: “Congratulations to Tin-Lok on his promotion to partner. He has been of enormous support to Kumon Australia for many years now, so much so, that we consider him a part of our team. We have been guided by his sage and expert advice on a wide range of matters. He provides thorough service and demonstrates genuine care and interest in our business. He is deserving of his success. We look forward to his ongoing support.” Being able to speak fluent Japanese has also been a great asset of Tin-Lok. He represents many Japanese corporate clients and advises them on setting up and operating their businesses in Australia. We look forward to witnessing Tin-Lok further cultivate our firm’s Japanese practice as he works closely with Mr Hayashi and the Japanese team. Tin-Lok’s temperament and meticulousness in his legal work also make him a popular senior lawyer and mentor in our firm. He has been instrumental in developing and helping our junior lawyers and staff achieve their potential. We wholeheartedly congratulate Tin-Lok on this well-earned promotion and look forward to his ongoing leadership in our corporate and commercial team and Japanese practice.
