Sun Ing-Chian is lead partner of Nishimura & Asahi's Taipei office, handling a portfolio that consists exclusively of cross-border matters between Japan and Taiwan, while working closely with the firm's Tokyo headquarters. She often represents clients in inbound and outbound joint ventures, acquisitions and investments. She is also a registered foreign lawyer in Japan.
We really appreciated their kind and timely responses. We received appropriate advice on measures that could be taken from the perspective of local laws when the situation changed unexpectedly.
As they were able to communicate with us in Japanese, the work proceeded very smoothly. I also felt that they handled the product with genuine care and attention.
