Powerful Legal Teams

Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu has powerful legal teams of lawyers, paralegals and secretaries capable of providing our clients with effective practical solutions. Each team has hands-on experience in achieving real results for clients in almost every sector of business including the manufacturing sector, the high-tech sector (such as computer and telecommunications), the finance and securities sectors, the investment funds sector, the distribution sector, the service industry sector, the construction and real estate sectors, and the government and public sectors. Because so many of our clients are domestic or foreign multi-national corporations, our teams also have tremendous experience in the international arena.

Optimum Staffing for Every Case - One-Stop Service

Team units are organized flexibly based on the type and needs of each case. Having specialized knowledge and experience, our lawyers are able to provide legal services and advice in various fields. Thus, our clients do not need to seek advice from other firms when dealing with complex or multiple matters.

Emphasis on Training and Continuing Education for Our Lawyers

By providing legal services within the framework of Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu's legal team system, our lawyers gain invaluable experience in cases spanning a wide range of practice areas, thereby adding to their knowledge and competency. Learning continues through participation by our lawyers in foreign legal studies programs, independent research and study arrangements and/or through placements with educational and governmental institutions. Further training is accomplished through internal office study sessions and by virtue of our specialty practice group system.

Staff Development

Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu trains and develops paralegals of incomparable quality and competence. We place great importance on their specialist knowledge and offer them work that affords them substantial learning opportunities and responsibilities under the guidance of our lawyers. Secretaries are trained to continuously improve and maintain excellent communication skills to work swiftly, effectively and precisely. Administration staff members, including information technology staff, are the administrative "backbone" of the firm ensuring the delivery of high quality legal services and supporting various aspects of our business operations.

Close Working Relationships with Foreign Law Firms

Based upon its many years of working together with law firms from around the world, Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu has developed close, informal working relationships with top-tier foreign law firms in New York, London and every other major city in the world. With a view toward effectively providing the highest quality legal support for the growing number of Japanese companies expanding their operations overseas, we have opened a New York office in September 2010 and have also established a co-operative alliance relationship covering Australia and South East Asia (excluding Singapore and Malaysia) with Allens Arthur Robinson as of October 2010 and a co-operative alliance relationship covering China and Japan with Zhong Lun Law Firm as of December 2010.
