Japan’s economy lends itself to a diverse and ever-developing client-base. While all of this means great things for your career, the lifestyle out of work is stimulating too.
Culturally, everyone here has played a part in our success to date and that’s something you’ll contribute to. We are a meritocratic firm, so your voice will be heard and your ideas will continue to mould our emerging culture.
Clients in Japan often like to deal very closely with their contacts, giving you broad exposure. There’s always mutual respect between colleagues, people put their trust in you, and sharing advice and expertise is standard. This will be typified by your close working relationships with Bengoshi lawyers, fostered by shared office accommodation.
Just a few years on from our 2005 merger with a Japanese law firm, our Tokyo office has built an eminent position in the market. The full integration of Japanese and international lawyers for the first time was a major transition for everyone involved and we’re proud to say it has been successful. We can offer fully integrated Japanese and international law capability from one office, and uniquely, can deploy legal teams on complex international deals quickly and responsively.
