Compensation Law

An accident, unlawful act or contractual breach may cause financial loss, physical injury and non-pecuniary harm. We assess liability, evidence, insurance and recoverable loss under Turkish law.

How we can assist

• Road-traffic and workplace accident claims
• Pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages
• Loss of earnings, support and future-care claims
• Claims arising from unlawful acts or decisions
• Settlement, insurance and compensation litigation

How the process usually works

1. Initial assessment. We identify the parties, immediate deadlines, jurisdiction and the practical objective.
2. Document and evidence review. We examine the available records, explain gaps and identify evidence that should be preserved.
3. Strategy and action. We prepare the appropriate application, notice, negotiation or court proceeding under Turkish law.
4. Follow-up. We monitor service, hearings and decisions and explain the next step in clear English.

Important timing points

• Limitation and notification periods depend on the event, parties and legal basis.
• Medical, accident and financial evidence should be secured before it is lost or altered.

Deadlines depend on the exact decision, service method and legal basis. Please obtain individual advice before relying on a general period.

Documents to prepare

• Accident, police or incident report
• Medical reports and treatment invoices
• Income and employment records
• Insurance policy, claim file and correspondence

Common mistakes to avoid

• Accepting a settlement before future losses are assessed
• Failing to document treatment and out-of-pocket expenses
• Waiting to obtain camera, witness or accident evidence

Frequently asked questions

What losses can be claimed after an accident in Türkiye?

Depending on the case, claims may include treatment costs, loss of earnings, permanent disability, loss of support and non-pecuniary damages.

Does an insurance payment end every claim?

Not necessarily. The payment, release, policy limit and total proven loss should be reviewed before concluding that all rights have ended.
