Seven Lawyers |
Tsuguo IMAMURA
He is the head of the seven attorneys.
He himself went to the Taimen Railway.
His vigorous style reminds us of a young man.
His vocation is a lawyer, but he is a poet at heart.
Togather with his wife/right-hand woman Ms. S
and skilled, beautiful secretary Ms. N,
he has formed a iron scrum for this case.
Kenji KOIKE
He has been Mr.Imamura's friend since his intern days.
He seems to be the opposite of him,
but together with Mr. Imamura, he has held up
the team of attorneys. His attitude is gentle;
his thinking clear; his voice echoes in the court room
But he sometimes sleeps on the bench at a station.
His wonderful wife, Ms. K, is a regular contributor
to the support group and often comes
and listens to the court proceedings.
Masato HIRAYU
He stands out as a lawyer because he used to be
a judge. He is a member of a choir.
When he was a judge, he was featured on newspaper
as "Singing Judge". He is very diligent.
He started to learn Korean when the trial started.
Now he has no problem with daily conversation
in Korean. He is advocating many trials.
He is a man of many talents.
Yohgo KIMURA
Most of the attorneys for this trial
are devout Christians.
Mr. Kimura is one of them.
He is fluent in English and has read a bulk of English
documents for this trial.
At home, he is a father of two fine daughters.
He cannot stop smiling
when his daughters cook for him.
Yukari HIDESHIMA
Ms. Hideshima is the only female member
attorney for this trial.
In her slender body rests incredible energy;
she is much more energetic than ordinary male.
She is committed to women's issues and Asian issues.
Now being independent and having established
an office in Hokkaido, every time there is a trial,
she flies to Tokyo and then back to her home ground.
Osamu WAKUTA
This was his first job as a lawyer.When he was
a student, a half of his time was spent on playing
rugby; the other half on the student movement.
After the graduation, he flexed his muscles
at a town factory. No one can beat him in endurance.
He drinks like a fish. He works for the mentally
disabled, socially disadvantaged and foreign laborers.
He is a fine man.But I cannot stand his habit of
putting his naked feet on the desk.
Tadao UEMOTO
He is the youngest among the attorneys.
He is so literate in computers
and very valuable among the attorneys.
He has mastered different computers and software.
One of his important jobs is to convert documents
into text files and put them on a disk.
His cynical appearance is deceptive.
He is a "sensitive male".
