1 Real Estate Practice Real Estate Practice Mori Hamada & Matsumoto provides a wide range of legal services in matters of real estate, adopting the time-honored approach of combining our legal resources which are considerable and diverse to effectively deliver what our clients require. Our Real Estate Practice Group has advised on many of the largest and most innovative real estate transactions in Japan, and carries this expertise in cross-border real estate transactions around the world. Strength in Real Estate Investment and Financing We have extensively developed our capabilities in the aspects of investment and financing, and take pride in our ability to manage large real estate investment transactions involving high-profile portfolios and multiple parties.
2 Real Estate Investment and Financing We have acted for investors, lenders, asset managers, financial arrangers, trustees and many others players in the real estate industry and in businesses requiring real estate, both locally and internationally, in purely domestic or in cross-border deals. We offer an array of legal services to respond to the needs of our clients in every stage of the transaction. Our principal services include: advising on investment or financing structures; setting up investment vehicles and funds; supporting investment vehicles and funds, asset managers and other relevant parties in completing the necessary filings or obtaining the requisite governmental licenses; advising on regulatory matters; advising on setting up trusts; Real Estate Practice legal due diligence investigations of real properties; advising on debt financing; and negotiations and documentation required during the entire course of each transaction. The attorneys of our Real Estate Practice Group have extensive experience, know-how and expertise across a broad range of fields, from real estate to structured finance, banking and financial regulations. Real Estate Wherever located and however held, real estate always exists within a framework that prescribes how it can be acquired, used and transferred. We help clients navigate the legal landscape with our advisory and transaction work to make properties accessible despite the complexities of ownership, lending, acquisition, leasing, and trusts. We routinely advise our clients on Japanese laws and requirements, and assist in conducting due diligence investigations, negotiating acquisition and lease agreements, and completing formalities relating to the properties
3 Structured Finance Since the inception of structured finance in Japan, we have played a major role in many challenging transactions that were the first of their kind in our jurisdiction. As real estate investments in Japan are often made through complex structures involving a special purpose vehicle, a trust, and multiple other parties, each transaction inevitably requires expertise in structured finance and a careful review of the documentation from the structuring and regulatory perspectives. Within these transactions are meticulously crafted fund structures, which are developed by our award-winning Structured Finance team to deliver comprehensive solutions that satisfy our clients acquisition and funding needs. For multi-jurisdiction fund structures, we work with other legal professionals in our global network to effectively manage foreign elements. Banking Real Estate Practice For both investors and lenders, debt financing is one of the most important challenges in any real estate investment. Our firm s extensive banking and finance experience, especially in secured or syndicated loans, as well as bond issuances, provides significant value to real estate transactions. Property at times given as security or designated as the source for repayment is often the key element that can make or break a deal. Leveraging on years of expertise, we have taken the lead in documenting some of the most intense, uncommon, and complex transactions with relative ease, speed and meticulous care. Financial Regulations We work closely with the financial sector for regulatory compliance, licensing requirements, and audits and investigations by governmental authorities. Our long-standing relationships with regulators, such as the Financial Services Agency of Japan, enhance our ability to provide support to financial institutions. We have also provided legal assistance to Japanese regulators in handling issues that affect various industries in Japan, including real estate. We influence business and gain insight from these mandates
4 One-stop Firm Legal issues in real estate investment and financing are often closely interrelated with other legal disciplines. Verily, the breadth of our firm s practice areas lends to the delivery of a full package of legal services for any real estate investment and financing matter. In particular, we have a large Capital Markets Practice Group, Corporate Practice Group, and Litigation Practice Group, which have distinguished themselves in the global legal market. Collectively, we provide seamless collaboration for an impeccably coordinated work product. Capital Markets J-REIT practice Real Estate Practice Since the emergence of J-REIT, our Capital Markets Practice Group has been actively involved in assorted matters relating to J-REITs and has built up a market-leading practice in this area. As J-REIT s activities invariably require real estate expertise, attorneys of the Real Estate Practice Group and the Capital Markets Practice Group constantly work in tandem for J-REIT transactions. Corporate M&A practice Our Corporate Practice Group has advised on a variety of cutting-edge, significant, and complex M&A transactions in Japan. Investments in real estate are sometimes made through the share acquisitions, or an M&A transaction may involve a company with complex real estate investment transactions. Our firm s M&A lawyers work with our Real Estate team to ensure that the challenges of the broader acquisition are given the same expert consideration. Litigation We are well known for our highly experienced litigation practice, and our litigation attorneys represent clients in disputes relating to all of the firm's practice areas. We have a number of attorneys who have extensive expertise and experience in handling various litigation and other disputes, from traditional to complex, involving real estate
5 Strong overseas network In recent years, the real estate market has rapidly globalized, and we have received an increasing number of mandates from clients for cross-border real estate investment and financing transactions, outbound or inbound. For outbound transactions, the destinations of the real estate investments have extended from Europe and the United States to Asian countries. European and U.S. investors, as well as Asian investors, look to our firm to advise them in Japanese real estate investment projects. To support the cross-border activities of our clients, we often team up with our Asian offices and non-japanese law firms. Our Asia Practice Real Estate Practice As of April 2015, we have five offices outside Japan in Beijing (opened in 1998), Shanghai (opened in 2005), Singapore (opened in 2012), Yangon (opened in 2014) and Bangkok (a desk opened in 2013 and an office opened in April 2015). Through these overseas offices, we provide comprehensive legal support to our clients from Japanese firms setting up their businesses across Asia, to non-japanese clients making inbound investments to Japan as they face a challenging and often unfamiliar business environment. Strong network with non-japanese law firms We have long-established relationships with a number of leading international law firms and domestic law firms in many jurisdictions. We further enhance these ties through secondments to and from these firms in our internship programs. Given our solid professional network, we fill the need for non-japanese legal services by bringing in some of the world s best practitioners, and collectively support our clients in getting the deal through. Our network extends to Europe, Asia, the Americas, and other parts of the world
