Our practice areas.
One discipline in every field: what goes on record, when, and in which words.
- 01
Real Estate Law
From purchase and sale to actions for cancellation of title, from tenancy disputes to condominium law, we build and defend the written ground of ownership.
- 02
Immigration & Citizenship Law
From residence and work permits to citizenship applications, we conduct the written process of staying in Türkiye — and of becoming a Turkish citizen.
- 03
Commercial Law
From incorporation to the resolution of disputes, we build the written ground of commercial life. A contract that is well written does not become a lawsuit.
- 04
Contract Law
We draft, review and negotiate sale, services, works, lease and cooperation agreements — and, when a contract is breached, we pursue the rights that arise from it.
- 05
Enforcement & Bankruptcy Law
From enforcement proceedings with or without a court judgment to actions for annulment of objection and negative declaratory actions, from attachment and sale to concordat, we conduct proceedings on behalf of creditors and debtors.
- 06
Criminal Law
From the first hour of an investigation to the final appeal, we represent clients as suspects, defendants, complainants or intervening parties. In a Turkish criminal proceeding, what enters the record decides the outcome.
- 07
Administrative Law
We bring actions for annulment and full-remedy actions against administrative acts and conduct, make applications to the administration, and handle civil-service, disciplinary, zoning and permit disputes.
- 08
Consumer Law
In disputes over defective goods and services, distance and subscription contracts, off-plan housing sales and banking transactions, we conduct proceedings before consumer arbitration committees and consumer courts.
- 09
Employment Law
Acting for employees and employers, we build the written ground of the employment relationship and conduct its disputes — from drafting employment contracts to termination, from severance and notice pay to reinstatement.
- 10
Tort Law
We pursue claims for pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages arising from traffic accidents, injury and death, damage to property and violations of personality rights — from documenting the damage to enforcement.
- 11
Intellectual Property Law
From trademark, patent and design applications to opposition and invalidation proceedings, from copyright infringement to licence agreements, we build the written protection of intellectual work.

Why we write
Ask what remains of a case file in the end, and the answer is always the same: what was written.
What is said at a hearing flies away. What enters the record remains. A sentence given in a statement will stand, years later, exactly as it was taken down, before a judge reading the file. That is why work at this office begins with writing, not with talking.
Whatever the field, every file turns on the same question: what went on record, when, and in which words.
Procedure is substance.
Every file moves through the same order. The order never changes; the file does.
- Consultation
The matter is heard, the documents are read, the legal frame is drawn.
- Strategy
The course to follow, and its alternatives, are set down in writing.
- Filing
The petition, application or contract is drafted and submitted.
- Advocacy
The file is pursued through hearings and written submissions.
- Outcome
The decision is assessed; avenues of appeal are reviewed.
