Av. Çağatay KISA
Attorney at Law

Because legal consultation is itself the practice of law, the initial assessment meeting is subject to a fee under the tariff. If, after the consultation, you decide to retain us for the case, the consultation fee can be credited against the retainer fee.

Yes. Consultations can be held at the office, by phone, or by video call, and you are kept regularly informed of every significant development in your file. For clients outside Istanbul or abroad, the entire process can be handled remotely.

Our office is in Esenyurt; we serve primarily the Esenyurt, Beylikdüzü, and Büyükçekmece areas. Beyond that, we handle cases throughout Istanbul and, where needed, anywhere in Turkey.

The duration depends on the type of case, the state of the evidence, and the court's caseload. For example, an uncontested divorce may take 1-2 months, an employee receivables case 1-1.5 years, and a contested divorce or title deed cancellation case 1-2 years. At the first consultation, we share a realistic time estimate for your file.

You can have a 'general litigation power of attorney' issued at any notary public, using the attorney's name and bar registration details. A divorce case requires a power of attorney bearing your photograph and containing specific authorization for divorce. If you are abroad, it can also be issued at a Turkish consulate.
