Local Legal Experts with a Global Perspective

Entering the Turkish market offers huge opportunities – in 2023 alone Turkey attracted $10.6 billion in foreign direct investment, rising to $11.3 billion in 2024. But foreign companies also face formidable challenges in Turkey's business landscape: complex bureaucracy, communication barriers, currency risks, fierce local competition, and intricate legal regulations.

That's where Turkish Trade Lawyers comes in. We are an international business law firm in Turkey dedicated to helping European, American, and Chinese companies overcome these hurdles and operate with peace of mind.

Backed by a strong local network and years of experience, we bridge cultural gaps and align Turkish legal strategies with your home country's expectations.
