Debt Recovery, Enforcement and Interim Measures

To recover a claim in Türkiye, the legal basis, evidence, due date, limitation period, the debtor’s address and assets, and the use of any foreign judgment or document must be assessed together.

The firm acts for individuals and businesses from pre-litigation collection efforts through litigation, enforcement, attachment, sale and collection.

• Review of contracts, invoices, orders, delivery documents, correspondence and account records
• Formal notices and payment demands
• Enforcement with or without a judgment and proceedings based on negotiable instruments
• Actions to set aside or remove objections and substantive debt claims
• Interim attachment and other protective measures
• Investigation of bank accounts, real estate, vehicles, wages, company shares and third-party receivables
• Attachment, custody, valuation and sale
• Complaints and objections concerning enforcement office actions
• Collection following recognition or enforcement of foreign court judgments or arbitral awards
• Legal conduct of restructuring and settlement discussions

For claims originating abroad, the evidential position under Turkish law, certification and translation of foreign documents, security for costs, jurisdiction, service and currency issues are reviewed in advance. The existence of a claim and its collectability are separate matters; the debtor’s assets and prior attachments can materially affect recovery.
