Chapters

Japan

The Japan Chapter was launched in November 2019, and it is the third chapter in Asia Pacific.

The mission of the Japan Chapter is to provide a forum for lawyers and consultants who focus in white collar defense, investigations, and compliance. Membership is open to those who have or are developing practices in these areas, even if white collar defense work only forms a component of their practice. The Chapter’s events and initiatives will provide members with educational opportunities, as well as building relationships and networking amongst the chapter members and the members of other chapters around the globe.
