Your Path to a Protected Estate in Turkey
What Our Estate Planning Service Covers
For foreign nationals holding assets in Turkey, having a clear legal plan in place is essential. Without one, Turkish inheritance law applies automatically — and the outcome may not reflect your wishes.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
If you own a Turkish company, your shares and business interests are subject to Turkish inheritance law. Without a plan in place, the company could face legal complications that affect its operations. We structure your business ownership so the transfer of shares to your heirs is smooth, fast, and legally protected.
Turkish inheritance law applies automatically. The legal heirs are defined by Turkish law — and they may not be the people you intended. The process can be slow and costly for your family. A Turkish will prepared by our team prevents this entirely.
A basic Turkish will and power of attorney can be prepared and registered within 1 to 2 weeks. More complex cross-border structures take longer, depending on the number of assets and countries involved. We give you a clear timeline at your first consultation.
Yes. With the right legal structure in place before you pass, your estate can pass to your family with significantly reduced tax exposure. We plan this from the start — using legal structures that are fully compliant with Turkish tax rules and the rules of your home country.
A power of attorney gives a named person the legal authority to act on your behalf in Turkey — signing documents, managing property, or representing you with government offices. If you live abroad, it is one of the most practical legal tools you can have. We prepare and register it for you with complete legal protection.
Turkish law includes forced heirship rules that protect certain family members. We advise you on exactly what is possible and structure your will to give you the maximum legal freedom while staying fully compliant with Turkish law.
Yes. We regularly coordinate with clients’ legal teams, accountants, and family offices abroad. We handle the Turkish legal side while making sure everything aligns with your wider estate plan. You get one clear, consistent strategy across all jurisdictions.
Absolutely. We treat all client information with complete confidentiality. Your family’s financial details, asset structures, and legal documents are handled with the highest level of discretion at every step.
Yes. Most of our estate planning work is handled remotely. We communicate in clear English and keep you updated at every step. If a visit to Turkey is required — for example to sign documents in person — we plan it carefully so it is short and stress-free.
Yes. A will from your home country may not automatically apply to your Turkish assets. Turkish law has specific inheritance rules for foreign nationals. We draft a separate Turkish will that covers your assets in Turkey and ensures your wishes are followed exactly — without a long legal process.
