Disputes Related to Trade Secrets
Nishimura & Asahi’s professionals have extensive experience in technology theft-related litigation, as well as expertise in cross-border dispute resolutions.
Recently, there has been an increase in the number of cases where divulgence and unfair use of trade secrets, such as a company’s technical or customer information, is in issue, and litigation related to trade secrets is seeing a corresponding increase. Our firm has represented clients in cases where the fraudulent use of trade secrets is an issue. In many cases, this type of litigation is international and our firm has networks with foreign top-tier law firms and has a strong track record in the area of international dispute resolution. Furthermore, as an understanding of the technical aspects of trade secrets is essential, we have lawyers who have backgrounds outside of the law, such as in engineering, and those lawyers work together with others with expertise in competition law and dispute resolution, and represent our clients in these types of disputes.
