ABOUT JIM OLIVA
I am proud to lead the Law & Intellectual Property Unit at American Honda. The innovative and diverse product lines at Honda - from automobiles, powersports, power equipment, and even jets- means there is never a dull moment in helping the company navigate the legal world.I am passionate about being a strategic partner with the business teams by providing legal counseling and guidance to promote the company\'s key business objectives and philosophies. My experience as both in-house counsel and at an international law firm provides me with a strong understanding of how legal strategies impact the company\'s business goals. As a result, I take challenging legal issues and resolve them by applying innovative, yet practical, strategies, while regularly working with other company executives to ensure those strategies align with business objectives. At the same time, I am skilled in proactively counseling the company to minimize risks by relying on my extensive experience in litigating cases, from class actions to product liability and intellectual property lawsuits. And I have significant experience working with colleagues on a global level, including from Japan, China, Mexico, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
