The adoption by Turkey in 1926 of the Swiss Civil Code and Code of Obligations founded a common legal culture between the two countries.

The Istanbul Office opened in 1999 and the firm is particularly well equipped to offer specialist services and support in the fields of commercial contractual law, assistance to foreign investors, corporate matters, Intellectual Property and wealth and estate planning.

Turkey, at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, is a complex society. In addition to the traditional legal assistance, the firm provides a support to get insights and understanding of the social and economic environment. As natives of Istanbul, the resident partner and the associates have an intimate knowledge of the local business and financial community and are best placed to provide adequate and useful guidance.

Beti Poyastro is the resident partner of the Istanbul office and co-operates closely with the Geneva office in international matters.
