## Frequently asked questions

### How are Turkish legal services grouped on this site?

The service pages are grouped by the legal problem a foreign client may need to solve: property, residence and citizenship, family and inheritance, criminal and administrative matters, maritime work, business and employment, accidents, medical claims, debt, tenancy and holiday-rental licensing. A single matter can touch more than one group, so the closest page is a starting point rather than a final classification.

### When can property and residence advice overlap?

A property transaction and a residence-permit question are legally distinct, but the same client may need to consider both. Property ownership, the intended use of a home and the applicant’s immigration position must be assessed under the current rules; one does not automatically produce the other. Review the property and residence pages together, then check the current authority requirements for the individual facts.

### What is the difference between a service page and a guide?

A service page describes the kinds of legal assistance Av. Yanatma may provide and the documents or procedural issues commonly involved. A guide gives general information about a Turkish-law topic for readers researching it. Neither page can decide a case without the relevant facts and documents; use the service page when considering representation and the guide when learning the basic framework.

### What should I prepare before asking about a legal service?

Prepare a short chronology, the location, names of the relevant people, important dates and any deadline shown on an official notice. Add clear copies of available contracts, title-deed records, permits, court or police documents, correspondence and payment evidence. The required documents vary by matter, but an organised first account helps identify the correct Turkish procedure.
