Clear answers to the questions on your mind.

You have the right to check the scope of the search warrant, to request the presence of a lawyer, and to enter a reservation into the official report; you are not obliged to allow access to systems outside the scope. Our team provides guidance by telephone at the moment of the search and representation on site.

CV screening and performance-evaluation systems are high-risk candidates under the AI Act; from the KVKK/GDPR side, the limits on automated decision-making and profiling also come into play. We establish lawful use through human-approval thresholds and a disclosure framework.

The authorisation document and its scope are checked, the legal team is called, a shadowing arrangement is set up, and the record-keeping process is initiated. Staff follow the rules of conduct defined in the guide.

The scope of the test, authorisation, data-access limits, the confidentiality of the findings, and the allocation of liability must be in writing; otherwise the testing activity itself may turn into unlawful access. We build your test contracts within this framework.

The rent-increase mechanism, the term and renewal, eviction conditions, fit-out and reinstatement obligations, and the right of assignment are the critical provisions of a commercial lease. In long-term leases, an unbalanced clause generates cost for years. We optimise the agreement according to your position. One protection tenants often overlook: under the Turkish Code of Obligations (No. 6098) a roofed-workplace tenant has real security — the landlord can evict only on limited statutory grounds, and annual incr…

The market range varies by transaction; what is decisive is the risk inventory (tax, litigation, environmental). The duration and release conditions are negotiated as much as the percentage.

The first rule is not to obstruct the process physically — and to record every step of it and call a lawyer immediately. A search and seizure runs under the Criminal Procedure Code (No. 5271) and as a rule rests on an order, so begin by noting the order itself, its scope and who is authorised to act on it; confirm in the record which documents and devices were taken; and have your reservations entered in that record. Your rights to challenge the order and the record are preserved.While it is going on, we monitor t…

Do not resist the enforcement, keep the official records, and contact us immediately; we file the objection and the application to lift the measure against security within hours. Throughout the fair, our Germany team intervenes on site.

A negative finding does not always mean “walk away”. More often there is a way to manage the risk rather than eliminate it. Depending on how serious the finding is, you can bring in payment up front or in advance, a bank letter of guarantee, a surety, a pledge or a mortgage, a letter of credit, or a staged delivery-and-payment model that breaks the work into phases.Some of these safeguards rest on contract law — the surety and security provisions of the Turkish Code of Obligations (No. 6098) — and others on commer…

Show gains before mandates: start with a scenario that automates the task they hate most. Adding a senior name to the champion network changes the balance.

No one other than the pre-designated spokesperson should speak; the first response should be limited to the verifiable minimum of information. We build the text together, screening out the risk of admissions.

A few headings decide this contract. The first is data: whether your inputs will be used to train the model, how long they are retained, which sub-processors are involved and in which country the processing happens — written down rather than assumed. Where personal data is processed, a data processor agreement under the Personal Data Protection Law (No. 6698) has to be annexed, with GDPR terms where EU data is involved.The second is the outputs: who may use the generated content, and how widely. The third is liabi…

The EU directive is being rolled out in stages and spreading down the chain through large companies; even if you are not directly in scope, your EU customers will pass their obligations on to you by contract. We monitor the timetable and plan your preparation in order of urgency.

The non-use of your data in training, confidentiality, data location, output rights, and clarity on liability limits are the minimum set that must be negotiated. We strengthen the procurement contract with these points.

In a badly designed review, yes — the risk is real. Examining an employee’s email, device or system logs means processing personal data, so the review is bound by the core principles of the Personal Data Protection Law (No. 6698): a specific and legitimate purpose, a scope limited and proportionate to that purpose, and prior notice to the employee. An unlimited, covert, just-in-case sweep exposes you to a KVKK sanction, to damages claims and to the evidence being ruled invalid.On the employment side, the Labour La…

It must be in writing, its limits as to place, duration, and subject matter must be set reasonably, and the employer must have a legitimate interest worthy of protection; otherwise it may be deemed invalid. For key positions, we design agreements with enforceable sanctions.

OSS applies once the EU-wide annual threshold for distance sales to consumers within the EU is exceeded; IOSS comes into play for low-value orders (up to €150) shipped from outside the EU. For sales through marketplaces, the platform often takes on the VAT. We set up the correct registration and filing arrangements together with our tax team.

The first hours matter, and they should be run to a plan and not to a reflex. In order: accuse no one, and do not put the suspect on notice yet, or evidence may be destroyed. Then place the evidence under legal hold — suspend routine deletion and log rotation for e-mails, system and access logs, accounting records and physical documents. Keep the information inside a narrow circle on a need-to-know basis and, where there is a conflict of interest, appoint an impartial team to run the investigation. Only then commi…

Yes, the best time is when the founder is strong and the process is calm. Rules written in the middle of a crisis are read by the parties as an imposition and do not hold.

Before the permit expires, within the application window set by the legislation. If family members’ permit periods have diverged, aligning them on a single calendar means one extension round per year.

Ideally it is prepared at least a few weeks before the fair; the filing in the register takes effect nationwide instantly and remains valid for six months. The moment a risky warning letter arrives, it should be prepared without delay.

Immediately, in line with the notice periods and formal requirements in the SPA; late notification can forfeit the right. Even at the suspicion stage, a protective notification strategy should be considered.

Before the letter of intent is signed. Exclusivity and binding provisions in the LOI narrow your room to negotiate; a team involved early frames the entire subsequent negotiation in your favour.

Policies and legislation impose short notification periods in most incidents; delay can lead to the loss of coverage or of rights. As soon as you learn of the incident, we draw up an inventory of your notification obligations, and you leave tracking the deadlines to us.
