What Adire Law Office does

Adire Law Office (\u5f01\u8b77\u58eb\u6cd5\u4ebaAdIre\u6cd5\u5f8b\u4e8b\u52d9\u6240) is a Japanese consumer law firm (\u5f01\u8b77\u58eb\u6cd5\u4eba) operating under the First Tokyo Bar Association and specializing exclusively in debt resolution for individuals. The firm's service portfolio is built around five procedure types: \u904e\u6255\u3044\u91d1\u8acb\u6c42 (overpayment/illegal-interest recovery), \u4efb\u610f\u6574\u7406 (voluntary out-of-court settlement), \u500b\u4ea4\u518d\u751f (civil rehabilitation), \u81ea\u5df1\u7834\u7523 (personal bankruptcy), and statute-of-limitations defense, with a recently added corporate debt restructuring line. The firm serves Japanese consumers struggling with consumer credit and cash advance debt, particularly those with pre-2010 lending histories who may have overpayment claims against major consumer finance creditors (Acom, SMBC Consumer Finance, Aiful).

The firm's distribution is built on a national retail network of 65+ branch offices covering all 47 Japanese prefectures, a 220+ lawyer bench, and a toll-free hotline (0120-316-742) staffed 9am-10pm including weekends and public holidays. Customer acquisition is supplemented by SEO-driven content, a YouTube channel, an online debt-reduction diagnostic intake tool, and local branch SEO across 65+ subdomains. Technology infrastructure is limited to Adire Direct, a 24/7 online case-progress portal, plus standard web and CRM systems; no AI/ML capabilities are disclosed.

The revenue model is professional-services-based and hybrid: 任意整理 cases carry a 44,000 JPY base fee plus per-creditor fees scaled by debt amount and an 11% reduction reward plus 22,000 JPY settlement fee; overpayment claims against fully settled creditors are zero-upfront with a 66,000 JPY base plus 22-27.5% of recovered amount; civil rehabilitation and bankruptcy are per-case with installment plans up to 10-12 months. A 'No Loss Declaration' (損なし宣言) guarantees client fees never exceed recovered benefit, and a 90-day full refund guarantee is offered. All initial consultations are free and repeatable.
