Although cross-border financial transactions involving multiple jurisdictions are conducted on a daily basis in the current global and borderless economy, these transactions often give rise to a substantial number of complex legal issues that necessitate expert legal support.

Our attorneys qualified in Japan who work in this field have foreign law degrees as well as overseas vocational experience. We also have a global network of top-tier law firms in more than one hundred jurisdictions. This network enables us to collaborate with overseas law firms to support clients in need of legal advice concerning a range of foreign jurisdictions in a timely and efficient manner.
