Tokyo-based attorney Nobuhiko Zoriki, founder of Zoriki Comprehensive Law Office, recently shared on social media a positive review of a book by Emiko Kawai, a noted legal scholar.
Zoriki’s post, made on February 22, 2026, simply stated he found Kawai’s book “compelling,” offering no further commentary. The post garnered 91 views as of today.
Zoriki established Zoriki Comprehensive Law Office in January 2020, following a period at Sirius Comprehensive Law Office. He graduated from Keio University Law School and was admitted to the Tokyo Bar Association as a 68th-period trainee. His legal background includes studies at the National University of Tokyo High School and Keio University’s Faculty of Law, according to information on the firm’s website.
The firm, located a two-minute walk from Yotsuya Station in Tokyo, currently operates with Zoriki and one administrative staff member. Zoriki’s practice areas include accident litigation, sports law, and corporate legal counsel, as detailed on his Note page. He is a member of the Japan Sports Law Society and a certified agent for the Japan Professional Baseball Players Association.
Zoriki Comprehensive Law Office similarly includes attorneys Ryosuke Kato and Keito Itaya, as well as Shuhei Sasaki. Kato graduated from Osaka University Law School and Kyoto University Law Graduate School, while Itaya is a graduate of Tsukuba University and Chuo University Law School. Sasaki’s background is currently unlisted on the firm’s website.
In April 2020, Zoriki noted that the firm was experiencing some impact from court postponements related to the COVID-19 pandemic, but reported a steady stream of new cases from existing clients, friends, and referrals from other attorneys. He has indicated a willingness to handle cases outside his primary areas of expertise, or to collaborate with other attorneys when necessary.
Zoriki recently contributed to a case study on consumer protection, specifically involving a consumer’s successful lawsuit against a contractor who artificially damaged a roof during a purported inspection. The case was highlighted by the National Consumer Affairs Center in February 2025.
