Miyake Law is a law firm based in Fukuoka, established in 2018, and specialising in dispute resolution. We act for businesses and individuals, focusing in particular on cross-border commercial disputes. Our approach is bespoke. We take on a limited number of cases and devote substantial time and attention to each case. The founding attorney Atsushi Miyake, who previously worked at a leading boutique law firm, personally handles every case.

Using technologies to streamline the back office and handling lawsuits remotely in major cities, including Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya, we provide cost-effective legal services. This enables us to offer ‘no win, no fee’ arrangements for claims exceeding a certain amount (see Fees), subject to our prior case evaluation.

While our practice primarily focuses on disputes between companies, we also represent individual clients in significant and complex disputes. These have included executives, expatriates and professional athletes, where the circumstances require the level of time and attention that our bespoke approach allows us to provide.

As a conflict-free, disputes-only firm, we can provide a completely independent and unbiased service.
