Law Enforcement and Lawsuit in Turkey

The following information is provided to briefly outline the judicial process in Turkey. Firstly, enforcement office sents a payment order to the post address of the debtor. And this payment order allows debtor to respond in 7 working days starting from the date of delivery. If debtor does not object, then this allows our lawyers to start seizure on the assets of the debtor. If debtor objects to the payment order, then the lawsuit for ‘The Annulment of the Objection’ is filed. There is a great room for objection in and in %95 of the cases debtors file an objection just to prevent seizure, to gain time and let creditor to file a lawsuit by paying court fees.

Filing this lawsuit, on the other hand, allows our solicitors to collect an ‘unjustified objection fee’ which is around %20 of the principal claim at the end of the judicial process in addition to the interests on top of the principal debt amount. Please be noted that judicial process does not prevent a settlement during ARSlegal. This is why we include our lawyer and consultancy fees into the commission which becomes payable after recovery and from the total recovered amount.

How Long Does Legal Debt Collection Process Take?

ARSlegal may take up to min of 8 months and to 4-5 years depending on the developments and the commands of the judge. There is a min of 2 months period between two court hearings and creditors themselves do not have to be present during court hearings.

Our lawyers and our legal team of solution partners will be representing the creditors and defending their rights on behalf of creditor with the power of attorney executed prior to ARSlegal.

Procedural Requirements for Legal Enforcement in Turkey

·Power of Attorney (POA)

A power of attorney is a written authorization which enables our appointed lawyers to perform specified acts for creditor’s behalf. We provide the power of attorney in double languages (both in English and Turkish) which will be granted to our solicitors with a limited authority on debt collection. The POA will be sent to creditor by email. It should be signed and stamped by creditor authorized signatory. In order to prepare the POA, we need to know the following

1. Creditor Full Name
2. Creditor Country of Origin and Full Addres
3. Authorized Signatory Name and Title

IMPORTANT: According to the Hague Convention, the POA must be verified by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in order to enable it to be used in Turkey. FCO Legalization is accepted in countries, including Turkey, which has signed the 1961 Hague Convention. (also referred to as ‘apostille’, the legal term for the legalization certificate). Countries which are not a member of the Hague Convention will often still require an apostille. But will also need further legalization via their embassy. Please contact with the Turkish Consulate in your country to know more about the exact authorities and procedures about apostille. After the POA is apostilled, the original document should be sent to our address by post.

·Evidences

Supporting documents are critically important to build a strong case. Therefore all evidences should be gathered in due diligence and a copy of documents should be sent to us together with the Apostilled POA (as stated above). There is no need to send the original documents until the judge asks for them.

·Brief History and the Content

A summary of the relation between creditor and debtor should be chronologically outlined in an A4 paper.

The reason of the debt and all supporting documents should be explained in detail.
