Mamiya specialises in corporate and transactions and was founded six years ago by M&A specialist Jum Mamiya. Ken Kurosu, managing partner of the Squire Patton Tokyo office, said: ‘We have developed a strong relationship with Mamiya-sensei, having first worked together almost 20 years ago. Not only do we share a number of major public institutional clients, but there are synergies with our financial services and intellectual property practices in Tokyo, which will lead to new and exciting opportunities in Japan as well as elsewhere around the world.’ Source: Legal Business
