One of the top performers in all aspects of intellectual property, Yuasa and Hara is often involved in the most high-profile cases in Japan due to the multi-talented expertise of attorney-at-law Kozo Yabe. Partners Shinjiro Ono and Yukio Yagyu represent the firm's patent and trade mark teams, respectively, which have seen the growth and expansion of the firm's overall prosecution practice, especially overseas. Microsoft, Coca-Cola, AstraZeneca, Gap and Daewoo Electric are among some of the key clients that instruct the firm on IP matters. Other clients typically operate in the industries in which Yuasa and Hara specialise and outperform its competitors in, such as pharmaceuticals, semiconductors and telecommunications.
