Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu is pleased to announce the establishment of its new office in London, its first permanent presence in Europe. The office is slated to open in January 2025.

Our London office will be headed by Kiyoshi Honda, a member of NO&T’s Infrastructure, Energy & Environment and Real Estate practice teams. Mr. Honda has extensive experience in energy projects, including renewable energy, environmental law-related matters, real estate transactions, and outbound transactions involving the U.K. and continental Europe. He will serve as the Representative of our London office and is expected to relocate to the U.K. around late November 2024 and commence his role at the London office in January 2025.

In addition to the opening of our presence in London, we have also significantly expanded our European Practice Group, which now comprises more than ten partners from various practice areas and with extensive experience in Europe-related business. Our European Practice Group covers a broad range of focus areas and is a centerpiece of the firm’s international strategy.

Our London office will be working in close collaboration with the members of our European Practice Group in Tokyo and our network of leading law firms in the U.K. and across the European continent. As a local contact point within the European time zone, our presence in London will be an invaluable addition to our practice, enhancing the quality and scope of the services we offer to the next level.

Further details regarding the official opening date, address, and other information concerning our London office will be announced in due course.
