On the day, attorneys specializing in the practical aspects of M&A, due diligence (DD), and post-merger integration (PMI) will be available at our booth to discuss legal support for M&A transactions and how to utilize attorneys depending on the scale and complexity of the deal. We welcome inquiries not only from those considering specific transactions but also from those in the information gathering and initial consideration stages, such as "I've been assigned to M&A, but I don't know where to start" or "I want to know at what stage I should consult an attorney." M&A Legal Support Tailored to Your Needs Our firm offers a range of services, from partial support such as initial issue clarification, second opinions, preliminary due diligence, and contract reviews, to comprehensive support covering due diligence, contract negotiations, and closing. We design the scope of support based on the scale and complexity of the transaction and your company's internal legal capabilities, and provide a clear outline of the scope of work and costs before commencement. This allows you to request only the necessary steps, enabling appropriate allocation of your legal budget for each transaction. Furthermore, we provide ongoing support for the increased contract reviews during the M&A execution period through "Hōmu Cloud," our legal outsourcing service.

Our firm supports the legal aspects of PMI, including the revision of regulations, c
