We advise and represent employees and employers in disputes arising from the employment relationship, including termination, reinstatement, compensation and wage claims.
Dismissal and reinstatement
The reason for termination, the wording of the notice, workplace records and statutory time limits must be assessed together. Reinstatement claims require particular attention to procedural deadlines and the employer’s stated grounds.
Employment-related claims
Severance, payment in lieu of notice, wages, overtime, annual leave and holiday work are not proved in the same way. Payroll records, bank payments, shift schedules and witness evidence may all be relevant.
Mediation and proceedings
Many employment disputes are subject to mandatory mediation before court proceedings. We review the scope of the mediation application and final report before formulating litigation strategy.
Documents for an initial review
Useful documents include the employment contract, termination notice, payroll slips, bank records, social security records, attendance or shift records and the mediation final report.
How we can assist
We review the facts, documents and applicable Turkish law before recommending the appropriate procedural or transactional route. For matters involving foreign law, we coordinate with locally qualified counsel where necessary.
