International Practice
We have extensive international experience. We assist foreign clients in obtaining and enforcing intellectual property rights in Japan. We coordinate the Japanese prosecution with the filing and prosecution of corresponding applications around the world, particularly in the US, Europe and Asia.
Legal and Technical Consultation
Rounding out our IP service, we counsel clients in the development and commercialization of their technology so that they can avoid infringement of the pre-exiting rights and enforce their rights effectively against others. Our approach to counseling clients combines our technical expertise and practical experience with our legal knowledge and business acumen.
