Our company engaged Akira Kumaki at Skadden to advise on a complex acquisition of a technology firm based in Tokyo. While our headquarters are in Houston, Akira's deep, on-the-ground expertise in Japan's corporate landscape was invaluable. His recognition in Corporate and M&A Law was evident in how he navigated the nuanced regulatory and cultural differences, structuring the deal to protect our interests while facilitating a smooth integration. He was a strategic partner throughout the entire process. The only minor critique would be that during the most intense phases, response times could occasionally stretch, which added some anxiety to our tight timeline. However, the quality of his work and his firm's resources ultimately delivered an excellent outcome. For any U.S. company considering M&A activity in Japan, Akira's unique bi-jurisdictional insight is a significant asset.
