We manage negotiation and mandatory mediation through litigation, expert review and enforcement within one coordinated strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Concise, verifiable answers

Where the contract is with a Turkish employer and is closely connected with Türkiye, Turkish labour courts—particularly at the employer's registered office—often have jurisdiction.

Passport movements, visas and residence records, flight tickets, bank payments, site correspondence, photographs and witness evidence may be used.

Where the wage was agreed and paid in a foreign currency and this can be proved, the claims may be pursued in that currency.
