1.Prompt, Discerning Response by Patent Attorneys in Different Legal Realms

 

Our member patent attorneys head the operations in their respective specialization in legal fields, bringing to bear the knowledge, multifaceted perspectives, and global conceptualizations they have acquired through their past practical experience toward the overarching goal of achieving customer satisfaction. Because our attorneys are charged with the legal fields of their respective specializations, they are always in contact with the latest legislation and trends in practice both in Japan and abroad, enabling them to provide prompt and discerning response.

2.Rich Experience in Overseas Cases, Coupled with Genuine Networks

 

Since our firm's inception, we have handled numerous overseas cases for Japanese clients through our rich experience in cases abroad and our dependable networks of international channels. The selection of a local patent or law office overseas is an important decision, and the most crucial factor is the extremely personal matter of who to consult. Also essential is establishing a relationship in which we can request prioritized handling for our office's cases. Instead of connections that are networks in name only, we have forged genuine ties with our overseas counterparts, and we also constantly strive to establish even stronger ties with these offices abroad.

3.Training and Self-study for Patent Attorneys and Staff Members

 

The world of intellectual property changes at a dizzying pace along with shifts in society, economy, and industry. Patent-office attorneys and staff members must be able to adapt constantly to change and provide services that anticipate what the future will bring. At Konishi & Nakamura, we attach great importance to the involvement of our attorneys and staff members in public activities and participation in outside study (both in Japan and abroad) as endeavors that lead to better client services, and we actively encourage such involvement and participation.
