TMI General Law Office
TMI General Law Office (Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative: Katsuro Tanaka) was founded in 1990, and has 571 lawyers and 99 patent attorneys (2024) with extensive experience in both domestic and international affairs. (as of October 1, 2017), and is one of the largest law firms in Japan with over 1,200 people including staff. As a global firm with offices in 6 locations in Japan and 17 locations overseas (including local desks), we provide legal services closely linked to companies, organizations, and local communities both in Japan and overseas. Although we are a law firm, we have always continued to take on new challenges since our founding, such as establishing our own ventures and signing digitalization agreements with local governments. We aim to become a challenging general law firm that can promptly propose solutions to a wide range of client needs, pursuing a new type of law firm, lawyer image, and patent attorney image that has never existed before.
