Sophisticated and Prompt Services to Your IP Locally and Globally

We are and will continue to be a trademark and design specializing patent firm.

Since our establishment in 1987 as one of the few patent firms specializing in trademarks and designs, we have been providing sophisticated and prompt services in the creation, protection, and exploitation of intellectual property.

We provide a wide range of services, including not only patent applications, examinations, and appeals before the Japan Patent Office, but also searches, expert opinions, litigation, copyright-related services, and customs import/export injunction procedures.

In addition, in order to meet the global needs for intellectual property protection, we have established a system of close cooperation with agents in various countries, thereby providing comprehensive services ranging from application procedures to the resolution of complex problems that arise in various countries.

In 1990, we formed "ADVICELINK," a group of specialists from different industries with lawyers, certified public accountants, tax accountants, architects, and others, to provide services to solve problems from all aspects.
