“Legal Doctor”, a group of doctors and lawyers, raises 150 million yen from individual investors in Japan and overseas
*Accelerate the social infrastructure of the Japanese people through medicine and law. Creating Japan’s first* new social infrastructure that combines a clinic and law office*
Legal Doctor Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director/Attorney: Yusuke Koshimizu, Representative Director/Doctor: Chikazawa
Toru (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) has raised a total of 150 million yen through a third-party allotment of capital exclusively to domestic and foreign individual investors.

Funding background
We are the first* medical and legal company in Japan to be founded by a doctor and a lawyer. We will deliver a new form of infrastructure to society by combining “medicine x law.”
Now that it is only a matter of time before insurance medical treatment collapses, we will continue to adopt new systems and mechanisms while complying with the existing medical system, seamlessly leading the entire industry in a better direction, as part of our “Non-Epidemic” practice. I think it is necessary. Since our company’s founding, we have mainly supported clinics and hospitals that provide community-based medical care through traditional insurance treatment.
With this funding, we will create Japan’s first* medical-legal institution that combines a clinic and law firm run by doctors and lawyers. Medicine and law are like water and air, which are essential to society; they are infrastructure themselves. Until now, the medical and legal industries have been separated, and interaction and collaboration between the two industries has been weak. Together with individual investors, we will break down these industry barriers and provide the people with a new social foundation that is “Legal x Medical = Legal.”
We will establish “Doctor”.

About Legal Clinic
* Japan’s first * “Legal Clinic” run by “doctors” and “lawyers” x law firm * “Legal Clinic” is a platform that provides the functions of a clinic and law firm online, integrating online medical treatment and online legal consultation.
Furthermore, the “Your Personal Doctor/Lawyer” system will enable us to provide instant medical and legal services to the public 24 hours a day. Because we collaborate with numerous lawyers and doctors, we are able to respond to a wide range of legal matters and deliver medical care as a general medicine physician to all parts of the country, including rural and remote areas. It is our pleasure to be able to consult with anyone, from those who are having problems to those who are worried about their body or physical condition.

Clinic comprehensive support service
* Japan’s first* comprehensive clinic support service provided by “doctors” and “lawyers” *
Our company has provided full support for over 20 medical
institutions, from private clinics to hospitals run by medical corporations, from establishment to operation. To begin with, many doctors are ignorant of the law, and surprisingly, there are many cases in which even large hospitals and clinics do not have legal advisors or are not functioning properly. Legal matters tend to be neglected in the early days of a business, but as clinics and hospitals grow, troubles arise between patients and doctors, as well as various issues, large and small, related to human resources within the organization. Particularly in the aesthetic medical industry, there have been cases where delays in legal compliance have resulted in clinics going out of business.
In some cases, the financial status of clinics on the verge of going out of business has been significantly improved through detailed support from our doctors and lawyers who have experience in opening clinics. In addition, our two representatives are both a doctor and a lawyer with national qualifications and experience in starting a business, and we have earned a great deal of trust in the fact that we are able to provide essential support for management, not just looking after things.

When opening a clinic, medical or labor-related problems may suddenly arise. Even if you seek legal advice from a lawyer, the truth is that you don’t really know where to go.
It’s not a surefire way to keep you from falling, but it’s reassuring to have a point of contact with whom you have a relationship of trust on a daily basis and who you can feel free to consult with even the smallest things.
If you can respond early, you may be able to resolve the issue before it becomes a serious problem.

Until now, the “20% justice” system, in which only about 20% of the population is said to receive judicial services, mainly due to financial reasons, has been viewed as a problem for many years. Additionally, in depopulated areas, due to a lack of medical resources, it is not possible to provide adequate medical care to the people.
Through our services, we will remove financial and geographical hurdles that impede the use of judicial and medical services, and create an environment where all people can equally receive appropriate support when they need it. We sincerely hope that our efforts will be a step towards the realization of “100 percent justice” and “balanced medical services.”

If there are two things that are essential throughout life, they are “medical care” and “law.” All of these are important factors that are essential to people’s lives. Until now, there has never been a case in which medical care and the judiciary have collaborated so closely to create new value. I think this will be an unprecedented effort by doctors and lawyers.
