Private International Law

Legal advice and assessment concerning applicable law, international jurisdiction, recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments, and private international law disputes involving cross-border elements.

As cross-border relationships continue to develop, determining the applicable law and the competent court has become increasingly important in private law disputes connected with more than one country.

Private international law addresses legal relationships involving a foreign element, including the determination of the applicable law and the jurisdiction of courts. It plays an important role in assessing disputes involving individuals, families, commercial relationships and assets connected with different legal systems.

The determination of applicable law, questions of international jurisdiction, and the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments in Türkiye are among the principal subjects of this field.

Such matters require consideration of the nature of the foreign element, applicable conflict-of-laws rules, relevant international conventions and the governing legislation.
