Chambers Review
DLA Piper has a robust employment practice with a strong following among companies operating in the technology industry. The firm draws praise for its ability to bridge the gap between Japanese and international law. The team has a diverse workload which includes acting on union negotiations, employment terminations and investigations, and maintains a solid track record for acting on employment matters arising from M&A transactions and business restructurings, such as post-transactional employee integration. It frequently acts on issues concerning employee classification.
Keiji Nasuda is a key contact for clients.
