Recover your receivables swiftly and decisively.
From debt collection to enforcement proceedings, from bankruptcy and composition (concordat) processes to debt restructuring; we provide results-oriented enforcement and bankruptcy law counsel that protects the rights of both creditors and debtors.
Determination in pursuing the claim, strategy throughout the process
Collecting a claim requires selecting the right enforcement path, acting quickly, and effectively investigating the debtor's assets. Proceedings initiated late or incorrectly greatly diminish the collectability of the claim.
On the creditor's side, we pursue swift and determined proceedings; on the debtor's side, we secure breathing room through bankruptcy, concordat (composition with creditors), and restructuring; and in cross-border claims, we conduct the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in Türkiye.

Even if the debtor has no known assets, tools such as inquiries into bank accounts, vehicles and real estate, the attachment of receivables held by third parties and, where necessary, an action to set aside dispositions made to conceal assets are brought into play. An effective asset investigation is the key to collection.
In enforcement proceedings not based on a judgment, the debtor's objection halts the proceedings; in that case, legal remedies are pursued to have the objection removed or annulled. The strength of the document in your hands determines the pace of the process. When an objection is filed, we choose the most suitable route and get the proceedings moving again.
Composition gives a debtor that is in financial difficulty but has a prospect of recovery the opportunity to restructure its debts by agreement with creditors and to be protected from enforcement proceedings during the process. The application and the process require meticulous financial and legal preparation; we carry it through from start to finish.
Depending on the nature of the receivable, negotiable-instrument enforcement based on a promissory note or cheque, enforcement without a judgment, or the litigation route is chosen. If you hold a strong document, negotiable-instrument enforcement produces results much faster. We assess your file and initiate the proceedings by identifying the route that will secure collection in the shortest time.
