Divorce Cases

Divorce means the dissolution of a marriage and this process can be both legally and emotionally challenging for the parties. We provide legal counseling to protect the rights and interests of our clients in divorce cases.

Uncontested Divorce: It is a type of divorce that takes place as a result of mutual agreement of the parties. In uncontested divorce cases, we provide services regarding the provision of all necessary documents, preparation of the agreement protocol and approval by the court in order for the parties to complete the legal processes quickly and smoothly. According to paragraph 3 of Article 166 of the Turkish Civil Code, if the marriage union has lasted for at least one year and the parties want to divorce by agreement, the court approves this agreement.

Contested Divorce: It takes place when there is no agreement between the parties. In contested divorce cases, we create a comprehensive legal strategy to defend the rights of our clients. In this process, in line with the relevant provisions of the Turkish Civil Code, a divorce can be requested for reasons such as the fundamental breakdown of the marriage union and the continuation of the marriage union cannot be expected.

Custody and Alimony

Child custody is one of the most sensitive issues in divorce cases. Our main goal is to prioritize the safety, mental health, basic needs and welfare of the child in custody cases by observing the principle of the best interest of the child.

Custody: Custody is the right to make decisions regarding the care and education of the child. Pursuant to Article 336 of the Turkish Civil Code, in the event of divorce, custody is awarded to the mother or father. Considering the best interests of the child, we try to provide the most appropriate solutions in custody cases in the best interests of the child.

Alimony: During the divorce process, we also provide counseling and representation services to our clients regarding spousal and child alimony.
