The general perception of Japan’s legal industry is that it is very Tokyo-centric, but in reality, there are a number of excellent law firms that are headquartered outside the metropolis. In this inaugural ranking, ALB spotlights 10 standout performers. The list is in alphabetical order.
Tokyo is undoubtedly the engine of the Japanese economy. As the financial and political center of Japan, the Tokyo Metropolis is indeed the prime investment destination, thus most of notable international and domestic law firms would choose to primarily base in Tokyo. However, there are a number of firms that have performed excellently in other metropolitan areas and regions in the country.
In its inaugural list for Japan’s Top Firms Outside Tokyo, ALB will present law firms that have proven particularly active in other metropolitan areas or regions outside Greater Tokyo Area.
東京は紛れもなく日本経済のエンジンです。フィナンシャルおよび政治の中心である首都圏は、最適の投資先ですから、日本の法律事務所も外資も東京に本部を置くのが定石です。しかし、福岡、近畿、名古屋など他のエリアをベースにして素晴らしい業績を上げている事務所もあります。
ALBジャパンは今回、首都圏とは一線を画して実績を積み上げている.事務所を、「東京外の法律事務所トップ10」ランキングで特集します。
