Turkish law, explained for the American side of the table.
Before Illinois, I spent over a decade inside the Turkish legal system — litigating in Istanbul's commercial courts and advising executives at one of Turkey's major energy companies through an international acquisition. That experience is available to U.S. businesses, law firms, and families as cross-border advisory — work that is advisory and consultative in nature.
This page explains the law in general terms. It is legal information, not legal advice about your case.
How I help
For U.S. counsel
Consulting on matters with Turkish dimensions: understanding Turkish commercial practice, court procedure, and documents; coordinating with counsel in Turkey; translating not just language but legal context.
For businesses
Practical guidance for companies entering, leaving, or dealing with the Turkish market — contracts, disputes, counterparties, and the unwritten rules that never appear in the statute.
For arbitration matters
An LL.M. in comparative international commercial arbitration and publications in the field, applied to disputes that cross legal systems — including energy and infrastructure, where I spent my in-house years.
For families and individuals
Cross-border questions that accompany immigration — documents from Turkey, powers of attorney, coordinating matters in both countries while your U.S. case proceeds.
Cross-border questions deserve counsel who has practiced on both sides.
Consultations are available in English or Turkish — whichever side of the table you sit on.
