New Zealand, the second-largest economy in Oceania after Australia, has long enjoyed robust social and economic ties with Japan. Since the early 1980s, our firm has been actively engaged in legal matters involving New Zealand, serving both Japanese and international clients across a diverse range of industries. Although we do not maintain a physical office in New Zealand, our longstanding market presence is evidenced by our extensive experience handling transactions and legal affairs related to the country. As a prominent member of the Commonwealth, New Zealand boasts a dynamic and stable economy driven by key sectors such as agriculture, technology, and renewable energy. Its strong trade and investment connections with Japan make it an attractive market for clients seeking cross-border opportunities. Our team includes attorneys who have studied and lived in New Zealand, including a member who is qualified as a barrister and solicitor of the High Court of New Zealand. This expertise provides us with valuable insights into the local legal landscape. In addition, we collaborate closely with leading New Zealand law firms, ensuring our clients receive the highest standard of legal expertise and benefit from robust local partnerships. With trade and investment between Japan and New Zealand on the rise, we are dedicated to supporting our clients’ evolving needs in this dynamic market. Our deep understanding of both jurisdictions allows us to deliver effective, commercially-focused solutions for all cross-border transactions.
