We have a half century of history to have supported the development of good corporate businesses.
Since the establishment of the Firm, we have been making enormous effort to work with our clients and share their pains and joys for almost a half century.
We believe that our "specialized areas of law" have not come to us on their own, but that they have been built up over years by our everyday efforts to bring the best results for the clients. We are fortunate for having met wonderful clients who have given us opportunities to accumulate our experiences and enhance our expertise in a wide range of areas of law. We also feel honored to receive respect from the clients for our works. (For details about the practice of the Firm, please see "Practice Areas".)
We feel humble ourselves and keep challenging ourselves to live up to the trust of our clients. |

We are well experienced in handling complex and large scale of lawsuits. We approach cases with determination and passion to "win" for our clients. Practical and ample experience in litigation is a useful weapon as well as in alternative dispute resolution and all sorts of negotiations outside the courts. For example, in contract negotiations, we are very good at deciding which conditions can be or cannot be compromised, based on our experiences of litigation in which interpretation of contractual terms are the issues. |

We have attorneys at law who are specialized in handling corporate civil rehabilitation and corporate reorganization. Shogo Abe has an outstandingly successful work record in this area. He acted as the trustee of companies in the process of reorganization under corporate reorganization law or as the petitioner of companies for corporate rehabilitation under corporate civil rehabilitation law, and turned the companies' businesses around to be stable, solid and expanding. Mr. Abe not only tidied up the companies' administrative structure and financial position but also made new business strategies for the corporations, and put them successfully into practice either by himself or with other business executives. |

The intellectual property law is one of the areas we have been focusing on. We opened the Patent Prosecution Division in 2000, and expanded our practice to application services.
We provide all sorts of legal service relating to intellectual property i.e. dispute resolution (alternative dispute resolution, litigation), application and intermediate actions, drafting of intellectual property license agreements, and license negotiations. (For details, please see "Practice Areas".)
We are confident that we can, for our clients, establish intellectual property rights and defend such rights, by providing entire service from application to dispute resolution. |

We have good working relationships with specialists and professionals outside the Firm, such as audit firms who have expertise to investigate business data from the angle of practical business management, accounting firms who are well experienced in handling corporate insolvency matters, and law firms both in Japan and overseas, whom we have been liaising with for long years. Such liaisons with outside professionals are significant to work out the best solutions in corporate restructuring and business reorganizations under both domestic and cross border jurisdictions.
We also have attorneys at foreign laws and patent attorneys, who studied abroad and have good connection with overseas local professions. |
