Osaka-headquartered law firm Oh-Ebashi LPC & Partners has launched an office in Nagoya, its third in Japan and fourth overall.

Partners Motonobu Wakabayashi and Shinji Hosono are the resident attorneys at the new office, which will serve the Chubu/Tokai region.

Other partners will be based both in the firm’s Nagoya and Osaka offices: Takamitsu Shigetomi, who specialises in IP law; Daisuke Mure, whose focus is labour law; and Kagenori Sako, whose work mainly covers antitrust law.

Oh-Ebashi also has offices in Tokyo and Shanghai.
