Questions foreign clients ask first
These answers are general orientation. Exact advice depends on document review and current law.
Do I need to travel to Turkey to hire a lawyer?
Usually not for the first assessment. Many Turkish legal matters can start remotely. If representation is needed, a power of attorney can often be prepared through a Turkish consulate or with notarization, apostille and translation.
Can you represent foreign clients outside Istanbul?
Yes. Turkish attorneys can represent clients before courts and authorities in different Turkish cities. Some local steps may require coordination with registries, tax offices, banks or local counsel.
Which languages can be used?
The firm works with international clients in English, German and Turkish. Where official documents are needed, certified translations may still be required.
How are fees determined?
Fees depend on the scope, urgency, document volume, claim value and procedural route. The recommended first step is a document-based assessment and a written fee proposal for the relevant stage.
Is this website legal advice?
No. The website gives general information for orientation. Legal advice requires review of the documents, dates, jurisdiction, parties and current legal position.
