Competition Law
Grow your company safely in a free and competitive environment.
In the Turkish legal system, the competitive environment between companies is safeguarded by strict regulations and prohibitions introduced by Law No. 4054 on the Protection of Competition. High administrative fines and sanctions imposed by the Competition Authority mandate full compliance with competition law in all commercial activities of companies. At Ada & Özyurtseven Law Firm, we protect the commercial objectives of our domestic and international clients by identifying potential legal risks arising from competition legislation in advance and providing preventative consultancy services.
