Employee & Employer Rights

20+ years of experiencePrinciple of confidentialityResults-driven representation

Labor law governs the mutual rights and obligations of employees and employers. Matters such as termination, compensation and receivables are often subject to statutes of limitation, so the process must be managed correctly to avoid losing your rights.

Common Issues in Labor Law

Severance and notice pay, overtime, annual leave and salary receivables, reinstatement lawsuits, and compensation arising from workplace accidents and occupational diseases are the most frequently encountered disputes. For employers, employment contracts, termination procedures and regulatory compliance advisory are of key importance.

How the Process Works

First, we listen to your situation in a preliminary consultation and assess your legal options. Then we determine the strategy and roadmap that best serves your interests, prepare the necessary documents and start the process. We follow lawsuits, labor law procedures and official applications from start to finish, managing hearings, notifications and deadlines on your behalf. We keep you regularly informed and move forward with a results-oriented approach.

We serve individual and corporate clients in Bakırköy and throughout Istanbul. For more information, you can request a preliminary consultation.

Employment Law — Frequently Asked Questions

When am I entitled to severance pay?
In general, you need at least one year of service and a termination that meets the conditions for just cause set out in the law. We will review your file to assess whether your situation qualifies you for severance pay.
I was dismissed. Is there a time limit for filing a lawsuit?
Yes, specific time limits apply to claims for receivables and reinstatement. For example, for reinstatement there is a short window to apply after you receive the notice of termination, so it is important to act without delay.
Part of my salary was paid in cash. Can we prove it?
Your actual wage can be proven through bank records, witnesses, messages, and similar evidence. We will assess your evidence together with you and build the strongest possible strategy.
I am an employer. What should I do to guard against employee lawsuits?
Properly drafted contracts, correctly executed terminations, and well-kept records significantly reduce lawsuits. We offer preventive legal counsel tailored to your business.
How are attorney fees determined?
Fees are determined based on the nature and scope of the work and the effort required, taking into account the Minimum Attorney Fee Tariff. At the initial consultation, we will give you clear and transparent information.
How does the initial consultation work, and is it paid?
You can request an initial consultation by filling out the form on the contact page or by phone. During the meeting, we will listen to your situation and review your legal options and potential costs.
Will the information I share remain confidential?
Yes. All information you share is protected under the principle of attorney–client privilege and will not be shared with third parties.
I am in another city or abroad. Can we still work together?
Many procedures can be carried out through power of attorney and online communication, so we can follow your case securely from a distance.
How long will my case take?
The duration varies depending on the nature of the case, the state of the evidence, and court workload. At the initial consultation, we will share a realistic timeframe for your case.
Will I be kept informed during the legal process?
Yes. You will be regularly informed about hearings, notifications, and important developments, and the process is conducted transparently.
