Boston-based Ropes & Gray has announced plans to open its first international office in Tokyo, Japan by mid-September. The firm is still waiting approval from the Daini Tokyo Bar Association. The new office will be known as Ropes & Gray Gaikokuho Jimu Bengoshi Jimusho and will be launched by two resident IP partners. Jim DeGraw and Steve Baughman will both move to Tokyo from Boston; the firm will also hire two associates fluent in Japanese.
