Nishimura & Asahi Achieves High Recognition in Chambers Greater China Region Guide 2026
Nishimura & Asahi is pleased to announce that our firm has achieved a Band 3 as the first and only Japanese law firm to be recognized in Corporate/M&A in Taiwan in the Chambers Greater China Region Guide 2026.
Our Tokyo partner Ing-Chian Sun was also recognized as the only lawyer from a Japanese law firm to be ranked, marking her third consecutive year of recognition. As a pioneer of Taiwan-related legal advice in Japan, Ing-Chian is the first Taiwanese lawyer to be registered as a Gaikokuho-Jimu-Bengoshi (Registered Foreign Lawyer in Japan).
Ing-Chian is a lead partner of our Taiwan practice group. As one of the few Taiwanese lawyers based in Japan, she handles a wide variety of matters for clients that conduct business in relation to Taiwan, such as M&A, finance, real estate, competition law/antitrust law, IP, and other international legal matters.
Notably, she was the first Taiwanese lawyer ever to be registered as a Gaikokuho-Jimu-Bengoshi (Registered Foreign Lawyer in Japan) qualified to practice law in Taiwan. She is based in Japan, but serves as a Co-Representative of our Taipei office, and provides our Japanese and Taiwanese clients with seamless, timely legal support for both their inbound and outbound legal needs.
