ABOUT US

Specializing in Intellectual Property Law, the forerunner of HOKUTO PATENT ATTORNEYS OFFICE was founded in 1962 in Osaka by the late Mr. Choshichi Ishida, P.A.

The founder’s passion and dedication soon brought about a rapid expansion of the firm. The firm’s handling of cases still continues to steadily increase in number, and there is no better evidence of the confidence our clients put in our strong ability and quality service. And it is the long-standing, flourishing relationships with our clients that we are most proud of.

Over the years, the firm has also conducted substantial overseas work for our domestic clients, collaborating with patent attorneys worldwide in Europe, North and South America, and the Asia-Pacific region. The practice of the firm today includes the representation of foreign companies in obtaining patent and trademark protection in Japan.
