  • ‘Jeremy White and Stephen DeCosse have a high level of global experience and a proven track record and are capable of handling legal cases around the world. In addition, despite being a global firm, they provide optimal solutions and legal analysis that meet the needs of Japanese companies. In addition, their Japanese branch is large, which gives you peace of mind.’

  • ‘The greatest strength of this team is not only its accurate legal analysis but also the ability to provide the optimal solution that the client desires in a short time. I believe that all members of this team have a wealth of knowledge, know-how, and experience to achieve this. I believe that the more complex the case, the more this team can demonstrate its strengths. I think Gary Smith at Mofo in particular is a fantastic lawyer with a lot of experience.’
