Since its establishment in Ginza, Tokyo in 1988, Hijikata Law & Accounting
Office has handled a number of legal consultations. We have each year enhanced
our personnel, including lawyers and other staff members, and have mainly dealt
with problems faced by Japanese companies and Japanese subsidiaries of international
companies. Recently, law firms are required to have abilities to handle issues
concerning management strategies, to address financing schemes and accounting
treatment
and to communicate with foreign executives as a result of globalization.
The characteristics of Hijikata Law & Accounting
Office are our excellent abilities in handling management strategies, dealing
with financing schemes and accounting treatment as well as communicating
with foreign executives. Such characteristics enable us to address a wide range
of needs of our
corporate
clients. Corporations today
face a variety of problems from misunderstandings with clients to compliance
issues, risk management, labor disputes arising from restructuring, corporate
reorganization
including spin-off and business transfer, and consultation on the establishment
and management of Japanese subsidiaries of global companies.
Hijikata Law & Accounting Office is experienced in and capable of handling these diverse
problems.
