Under the current complex and globalized economic environment, the importance of antitrust/competition law compliance has been increasing. Nozomi’s lawyers have experiences in antitrust enforcement authorities such as the Japan Fair Trade Commission and the Special Investigation Unit of Tokyo District Public Prosecutors’ Office, and provide practical advice to our clients on a variety of antitrust and competition law issues such as relationships with suppliers and competitors, joint ventures, franchise business issues, intellectual property licensing, merger control clearance, the Japanese Subcontract Act, handling of investigation by regulators, negotiation with regulators, and antitrust litigations. We also provide employee compliance trainings and seminars to the public on a regular basis.
