Clear answers to the questions on your mind.

A non-compete is valid if it remains within reasonable limits as to duration, geographic area, and subject matter, and if the employer has an interest worthy of protection. Excessively broad restrictions may be deemed invalid or narrowed. We structure an enforceable and defensible non-compete.

Yes. Regardless of the hazard class, having a risk assessment carried out is a legal obligation for workplaces and is the foundation of OHS compliance. An incomplete or outdated risk assessment gives rise to the risk of both administrative fines and serious liability in the event of an accident.

We assess every risk along two axes: the likelihood of its occurrence and the impact it would have if it materialises. High-likelihood, high-impact risks are addressed first, while lower-priority ones are placed under monitoring. This approach lets you direct your resources towards the measures that make the greatest difference.

The seller's risk is managed through representations and warranties, liability limitations, escrow mechanisms, and price-adjustment provisions. We structure the agreement in a balance that protects you against post-closing claims.

A capital increase involves certain stages, such as a general assembly resolution, an amendment to the articles of association, and registration with the trade registry. It can be carried out through various methods, such as contributing cash capital or adding internal resources to the capital. We prepare each step of the process and ensure that the resolutions and the registration comply with the legislation.

Notifications of the commencement and termination of employment, together with the monthly premium and service declarations, must be filed within the statutory time limits set out in the legislation. Exceeding these limits gives rise to the risk of an administrative fine. By closely monitoring the notification schedule, we ensure that obligations are fulfilled on time.

Whether the grounds for rejection are justified under the policy and the applicable legislation must be examined carefully; most rejections stem from a misinterpretation of the scope of coverage or of the insured's obligations. Where a rejection is unjustified, we vigorously pursue your compensation claim through insurance arbitration or litigation.

The Insurance Arbitration Commission generally produces faster results than the courts and is an effective route in insurance disputes. However, every case has its own character. We assess your dispute and initiate the process by determining the most advantageous route in terms of amount and nature.

Yes. Once the insurer has paid the cargo owner, it acquires a right of recourse against the carrier at fault. In the recourse process, proof of liability, the CMR limits and the limitation period are decisive. We conduct these processes on a results-oriented basis for insurance companies and cargo owners.

A complaints mechanism is mandatory for companies within the scope of the law; suppliers, too, may be expected to contribute to an accessible reporting channel. We design the mechanism so that it is legally compliant, preserves confidentiality, and functions operationally.

An independent legal entity (a company) limits liability and makes it easier to benefit from incentives, whereas a branch offers a structure tied to the parent company. A liaison office, on the other hand, is suitable for market research without carrying out commercial activity. Together, we select the structure best suited to your goal.

Restructuring arises in response to needs such as growth, new investment, intra-group simplification, generational succession, or the segregation of risk. Restructuring becomes valuable when the existing structure no longer meets the company's current objectives. We determine the most suitable approach together, according to the nature of the need.

Against false or unfair content that targets commercial reputation, measures such as access blocking, content removal, damages and, where necessary, unfair-competition provisions come into play. In a corporate reputation crisis, we plan the legal and communications steps in a coordinated way.

Yes. Almost every business that processes employee, customer, or supplier data is subject to KVKK (Türkiye's Personal Data Protection Law) obligations in its capacity as data controller. Privacy notices, security measures, data retention and destruction, and, where required, registration with VERBİS (the Turkish data controllers' registry) are mandatory. Non-compliance leads to serious administrative fines.

Compliance is achieved by regularly auditing your distribution agreements, pricing policies, and contacts with competitors. With a company-specific compliance programme and employee training, we identify risks early and prevent violations before they arise.

We begin with a formal demand notice and, where necessary, proceed through enforcement proceedings, litigation, or mediation. For cross-border receivables, we also handle the recognition and enforcement in Türkiye of foreign court/arbitral decisions.

The parties may choose the law governing the transaction agreement; however, the corporate, competition, and employment law rules of the country where the target company is located are often mandatory. In Turkish–German transactions, we secure the structure by taking both systems into account.

In transactions between Türkiye and the DACH region, we follow an integrated approach that considers Turkish law and the relevant foreign law together. With our İstanbul, Berlin, and Kyrenia offices and our multilingual team, we ensure that the parties speak the same language. In this way, matters such as the applicable law, the competent court, and arbitration are clarified from the outset.

The parties may freely determine the applicable law and the competent court or place of arbitration in the contract. This choice fundamentally affects the outcome of a dispute; in Turkish–German transactions, we take both legal systems into account to build the most secure structure in your favour.

Yes. With our multilingual team, we conduct mediation processes in Turkish, German, and English in commercial disputes involving a foreign party. We focus on workable solutions that preserve the cross-border commercial relationship.

In a contract between Türkiye and the DACH region, the governing law, the competent court and enforceability are critically important. A text that takes both legal systems into account remains enforceable no matter which country a problem later arises in. This approach minimises unforeseeable surprises in cross-border trade.

A contract risk map is an assessment that scans your existing contract portfolio and brings together into a single view the risky provisions, term and termination pitfalls, unbalanced liability clauses, and collection risks. This map clearly sets out which contracts require priority attention and where your position is solid.

Contracts are commercially sensitive documents. We tie access to authorisation, keep transaction logs, and design the storage arrangement in line with the principles of KVKK/6698 (Turkish Personal Data Protection Law) and GDPR. The aim is to bring easy access and strict confidentiality together within the same system.

CLM is an approach to managing all stages of a contract — from drafting to negotiation, from signing to storage and renewal — within a single system. Its aim is to turn contracts from scattered files into a traceable, auditable process.
