During the years immediately following World War II, several American lawyers established such firms in Japan (e.g. Anderson Mori). Japanese lawyers with international training began establishing international firms in the 1960s, and since regulatory changes in the 1990s, many Japanese lawyers have joined or partnered with Tokyo offices of major multinational law firms.〔 Other Japanese firms historically grouped in the "international firm" category include: * Mitsui, Yasuda, Wani & Maeda (dissolved in 2004, with a number of lawyers joining the Tokyo office of Linklaters) * Tokyo Aoyama Law Offices and Aoki Law Offices (merged in 2001 to form the Japanese arm of Baker & McKenzie) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Big Four (law firms)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
