Not directly; mandatory rules of Turkish employment law take precedence over group policies. Rather than translating the policies one-to-one, we adapt them legally, reconciling the group standard with Turkish legislation.

Not always; it depends on the type of licence. Some licences and permits attach to the business itself — to the physical and technical characteristics of the premises — and are easier to carry across on a transfer. Others attach to the operator, and require the acquirer to make a fresh application or to obtain approval of the transfer.The workplace opening and operating licence, for example, usually has to be reissued in the new operator’s name when the operator changes. The licence consequences can also differ de…

Depending on the scale of the modification, partial obligations may arise. The role should be determined by documenting the purpose of the fine-tuning, the dataset, and the distribution channel.

No — a request is limited by its legal basis and its scope; disproportionate requests can be narrowed. Privileged and trade-secret content must be screened out before anything is handed over.

Transparency rules apply to synthetic content made available to the public; labelling is essential especially for content imitating real persons. Exceptions must be interpreted narrowly.

In effect yes: where personal data is unlawfully obtained, the breach must be notified to the Board within 72 hours of becoming aware of it (Article 12(5) of the Law; Board decision 2019/10 of 24.01.2019). Unlike the GDPR, notification to the Board does not turn on a risk threshold; the risk assessment determines whether the affected individuals must also be notified. The threshold analysis is a legal decision and must be documented.

Commercially, usually yes; legally, the content can be negotiated. We establish a counter-proposal practice that balances excessive commitments (unlimited audits, strict liability).

If you want us to, yes — a check-up does not have to stop at finding the risks. Once the report is in we prioritise the remediation plan with you and then work through it: updating contracts, completing missing general assembly resolutions and trade registry filings, putting the employment documents required by the Labour Law (No. 4857) in order, and closing the compliance gaps under the Personal Data Protection Law (No. 6698).The flexibility matters. Some clients hand the whole remediation to us; others run the s…

Yes. In an audit, a search or a seizure we provide legal support on site, a strategy for statements, and coordination of the crisis communications. Under the Criminal Procedure Code (No. 5271) the rights of the company and of its employees are protected carefully — to have a lawyer present, to object to the process, and to have that objection entered in the record. Our advice is consistent: give no statement before a legal assessment has been made.In administrative audits the procedural safeguards are watched just…

Yes; as a user (deployer) you also face obligations such as use in line with the instructions, human oversight, the suitability of input data, record-keeping and, in certain cases, an impact assessment. For systems used in HR, credit or similarly sensitive areas, we set up your usage framework accordingly.

Largely yes, if structured correctly; however, mutual termination agreements that do not provide a reasonable benefit or that are signed under pressure may be held invalid. We prepare the mutual termination package in line with the criteria required by case law.

For the threshold calculation, the rule is that the price is actually paid and documented; mortgage/loan structures can weaken the threshold calculation. The financing plan must be run through an eligibility check before the application.

It offers no guarantee; but it prevents the court from deciding on one-sided information. In practice, a well-prepared protective brief leads either to rejection of the application or to an oral hearing being scheduled —…

Yes. A valid work permit — or an exemption from one — also serves in place of a residence permit under the International Labour Force Law (No. 6735), so a foreign national holding a work permit does not need to apply separately for a residence permit. The two are tied together in duration and validity: if the work permit ends or is cancelled, the right of residence that depends on it ends with it, which is why extension applications have to be made in good time.Family members — a spouse and children — are not cove…

As a rule, conciliation does not amount to an admission of the offence and does not appear on the record as a conviction; the wording of the text matters, however. We structure the scope of waivers and statements with care.

With the right coverage, yes; but policies are tied to conditions such as notification deadlines and security undertakings, and coverage can be denied if these are breached. We test your policy against incident scenarios and pursue your rights through the claims process.

Attending the meeting does not affect it; signing the settlement MINUTES is final and closes the litigation route. For items on which no settlement is reached, the litigation period runs anew from the minutes.

Largely yes, if a reasonable benefit was provided and it was signed of the employee's own free will. An impression of pressure or the lack of a benefit can invalidate the agreement — we build the package around the case-law criteria.

Some policies cover it under specific conditions; however, sanctions lists and approval requirements are strict. The payment decision must run in parallel with insurer approval and legal assessment.

Yes — the network's transaction practice is focused predominantly on the mid-market. Regardless of size, the first step is the same: defining the opportunity correctly. In a short preliminary meeting, we clarify together whether…

Directly, it binds only structures that provide services or have a subsidiary in the EU; however, EU customers pass supply-chain security obligations on to you by contract. We negotiate the incoming security requirements and pass them on to your subcontractors in a balanced way.

Yes; German buyers may screen out non-compliant suppliers because of their own legal risks. Compliance is the insurance of your customer relationship in the DACH market — its cost is small compared with a single lost annual contract.

It depends on the EU Succession Regulation and the choice-of-law setup; the goal should be a single plan valid in both countries. Two separate, conflicting wills are the worst-case scenario.

Yes; a single lawsuit avoided often saves more than an entire annual advisory budget. Alongside litigation, enforcement and criminal risks, the costs avoided also include management time and losses of reputation and business relationships. Prevention works by setting contracts up correctly at the outset, closing compliance gaps early, and settling disagreements before they harden into disputes. No approach removes every risk — but preventing is generally more economical, and far more predictable, than remedying af…
