FAQ About Our Legal Resources
Yes. Turkish laws, especially regarding citizenship, real estate, and corporate tax, change frequently. Our editorial team, led by senior attorneys, regularly reviews and updates all articles to reflect the most current legislation, Official Gazette (Resmi Gazete) announcements, and judicial precedents.
No. While our content is written by qualified Turkish lawyers, it is for informational purposes only. Every legal file has unique variables and exceptions. These guides provide a strategic framework, but they do not replace an official attorney-client consultation tailored to your specific situation.
Unlike many sites that use generic content writers, our articles are authored or reviewed by our Practice Area Leads and Senior Associates. This ensures that the information you read is not just theoretically correct but also practically applicable in Turkish courts and government offices.
We are a comprehensive, full-service law firm. Our legal resources cover the entire spectrum of Turkish Law. While we are known for our international practice, our team is equally authoritative in local Criminal Law (Penal Code), Administrative Law, Labor Law, Execution & Bankruptcy, and General Litigation. No legal matter in Turkey is outside our scope.
If you cannot find a specific answer in our library, do not rely on guesswork. You can contact us directly via WhatsApp or Email to request a "Legal Opinion". Our specialized practice groups can review your documents and provide a written roadmap for your case.
Exclusively. We understand that the Turkish legal system can be confusing for non-residents. Therefore, we write in clear, jargon-free English, focusing on the practical challenges, "red tape," and procedural nuances that specifically affect foreign nationals and international businesses in Turkey.
The best way is to visit our "Legal Insights" page regularly. However, for our retained corporate and private clients, we provide direct legal alerts and circulars whenever a regulatory change (such as a minimum investment hike for citizenship) impacts their interests.
