Our principles as a law office: how we work with you

Confidentiality

Everything a client shares is protected by attorney–client confidentiality under the Attorneys Act. Documents are used only for the matter and shared with authorities only as the procedure requires. Personal data is processed in line with the Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698; details are in the privacy notice.

Clear written information

Before any step is taken, the legal basis, the documents needed, the expected duration and the risks are explained in writing. Each step of the procedure is reported as it happens, so a client abroad always knows where the file stands.

Communication in your language

Consultations are held in Turkish, English, Arabic or Persian. Documents submitted to Turkish authorities must be translated by a sworn translator and certified by a notary; the office tells you exactly which documents need this.

Careful tracking of deadlines

Many procedures for foreigners have short, strict deadlines, for example 7 days to challenge a deportation order and 60 days for most administrative lawsuits. Deadlines are recorded from the date of service, and the client is told in writing when each one ends. See administrative cases for foreigners.

No promised outcomes

Decisions on citizenship, residence, entry bans and court cases are made by public authorities and courts. The office explains the realistic options and risks but does not promise any particular result or timeframe. Advertising of legal services is restricted by the bar's rules, and this website is written as neutral legal information.

Engagement letter and fees

The scope of the work and the fee are agreed in a written engagement letter before work begins. The statutory minimum fee tariff of the Union of Turkish Bar Associations applies. Official charges such as fees, taxes, translation and notary costs are listed separately.
