Who are we?
Twenty Four Years Of Experience In Various Cases
Over the years, Legal Video Asia has helped in excess of 120 law firms achieve their objectives. We are headquartered in Osaka, Japan with an office in Tokyo which enables us to cover all the deposition rooms here. From this base, we service the entire region and have frequently double or triple tracked large cases.
Once we know the nature of your litigation, we assign a team with skills that match the case. Whether it be intellectual property, patent infringement, pharmaceuticals, etc., Legal Video Asia has access to professionals who will make all the difference when a case goes to trial and winning or losing is at stake.
We can quickly move our teams where they are needed with less difficulty than any US firm. With decades-long experience, we know the locations and how to operate in Asia. This regional experience means we know how to keep the cost of foreign discovery under control.
The US certified videographers on our team gained years of experience in professional production before they started doing deposition work. In the news business where, as with video depositions, there are no second takes we get it on the record in real time. No fuss, no excuses.
Our team has been permanently based in Asia for decades. Thanks to our extensive local network, built-up over time, we get things right – faster, better, and more cost effectively than anyone else.
Your case merits the best, most experienced deposition team in Asia!
