During the initial consultation, the subject of the dispute, the sequence of events, the parties, available documents, previous applications and any ongoing legal proceedings are reviewed.
The purpose of the consultation is to identify the general legal framework and explain the possible courses of action.
Contracts, notifications, court documents, message records, payment documents, title deed records, reports and other materials connected with the legal dispute should be brought to the appointment.
When you are unsure which documents are required, you may contact our office before the appointment for guidance.

The duration of a lawsuit depends on many factors, including the court’s workload, the scope of the file, expert examinations, witness hearings, service procedures and appeals.
For this reason, the exact completion date of a case cannot be guaranteed in advance.
Whether personal attendance is required depends on the type of case, the court’s directions and the nature of the procedural step.
Where the client must attend a hearing, the necessary information is provided in advance.
The client is regularly informed about significant developments, hearing dates, court decisions and any action that must be taken.
Where applicable, individuals may also view case information through e-Government and the UYAP Citizen Portal.

Witness testimony, recordings, correspondence, bank transactions, institutional records and other lawfully obtained evidence may be assessed according to the circumstances.
Frequently asked questions about divorce, custody, maintenance, division of property and family law.

As some employment law remedies are subject to strict time limits, obtaining a legal assessment without delay is important.
The length of employment, the reason for termination, social security records and the manner in which the contract ended should be assessed together.
Leaving employment does not automatically create an entitlement to severance pay in every situation.
Working arrangements, payroll records, entry and exit records, workplace correspondence, duty schedules and witness statements may be considered as evidence.
Depending on the type of employment dispute, a mediation application may be required before filing a lawsuit. The scope of the application and the appropriate procedure should be determined according to the specific dispute.

Frequently asked questions about debt recovery, payment orders, attachment, objections and eviction proceedings.
The source and due date of the debt, the debtor’s details and the available documents are reviewed before the appropriate enforcement method is selected.
Contracts, invoices, promissory notes, bank records or correspondence may be important when assessing the claim.
The type of payment order, the date of service, the amount claimed and the basis of the enforcement proceedings should be reviewed without delay.
As enforcement proceedings are subject to important application and objection periods, the date on which the document was received should be recorded.
An objection may be available where the debt does not exist, has been paid, has been calculated incorrectly or another legal objection applies.
The form of the objection and the authority to which it must be submitted may vary according to the type of enforcement proceedings.
The subject of the attachment, the relationship between the debtor and any third party, the nature of the asset and the actions taken in the enforcement file should be examined.
Where a measure is considered unlawful, an appropriate complaint or other legal remedy may be assessed.

The legal basis of the action should be determined after reviewing the title deed and other official records.
A share in jointly owned property may be transferred. However, any pre-emption rights of the other co-owners and the legal status of the property should also be assessed.
It is a legal procedure used to terminate co-ownership in movable or immovable property held in shared or joint ownership.
Depending on the circumstances, the property may be divided in kind or the co-ownership may be dissolved through sale.
Different legal grounds may apply, including non-payment of rent, a valid eviction undertaking, the landlord’s need, reconstruction or breach of the lease agreement.

Clearly regulating the rent, increases, deposit, permitted use, eviction, maintenance and expense provisions may help reduce future disputes.
