Ryuka IP Law Firm is specific on what defines the bulk of its consultation and filing work: electrical circuits in test apparatuses, image processing and mechanical configurations in digital cameras, compound semiconductor wafers, and LED devices. At the heart of this firm are the creative minds of principal Akihiro Ryuka and partners Hideya Akashi and Michihiro Izumi. Known for its ability to build relationships and place emphasis on the needs of multinational clients, the team was instrumental in advising and creating a patent portfolio for Advantest that would protect its product pipeline. "We have worked with many other trade mark firms, and the market quality is in general very high in Japan," says one European client. "But Ryuka IP Law Firm is surely in the higher bracket." Also, Ryuka continues to represent Samsung Electro-Mechanics and Intel in separate appeals for invalidation and IP litigation. "We would recommend Ryuka IP Law Firm for its professionalism, high quality work, responsiveness and precision," praises another client.
