The predecessor of Lexeed Law Firm is Harima Chuo Law Office, which opened in Himeji-shi in 2015. While consulting with clients mainly in Himeji-shi on corporate legal matters, Hanafusa, the representative attorney, became acutely aware that specialists in intellectual property, international legal affairs, and taxation etc. are unevenly distributed in urban areas such as Tokyo and Osaka, and that it is not easy for small and medium-sized companies in rural areas to access specialized legal services, leading to a desire to provide better and more accessible legal services in the local cities. Sympathizing with this desire, a group of experts came together to form the Lexceed Group.
The Lexceed Group consists of "Lexceed Legal Professional Corporation," a group of attorneys whose main practice area is general corporate legal affairs, and "IP Law Firm Lexceed Tech" a group of attorneys and patent attorneys whose specialty is technology-related legal affairs. The firm is characterized by its large number of professionals with expertise in corporate legal affairs and intellectual property, and by the fact that it has offices in local cities throughout Japan.

In the future, if we can find associates who share the above philosophy, we would like to expand our offices to local cities throughout Japan and become a firm that can meet the specialized legal needs of companies nationwide, support the development of people and companies, and ultimately contribute to the development of the social economy.
