Moroglu Arseven

The firm: For over twenty years, Moroğlu Arseven has provided sophisticated business clients with a full range of legal support. We offer the kind of integrated counselling and representation which is only available from a full-service firm. Our proactive ethos of anticipation rather than reaction is the foundation upon which we stand our four pillars, the areas of legal practice in which our practical and academic expertise is unrivalled in Turkey; they are business and finance, compliance, dispute resolution, and intellectual property.

Our expert attorneys advise publicly traded multinationals and large, closely held domestic companies. Clients seeking counselling within one of our pillar practice areas quickly realize the depth of sub-specialization and take advantage of the full breadth of our expertise. Indeed, when advising clients on matters of novel complexity within a particular practice area our attorneys often take a team approach, recruiting from our other practice groups, specialist practitioners, and academics to provide highly specialized analysis and advice.

The firm represents and serves a diverse clientele, in a wide range of industries. In-depth sector knowledge ensures seamless service across practice areas, enabling Moroğlu Arseven to meet all of a client’s legal needs in Turkey. Key areas include industrial and manufacturing, retail and consumer, TMT, energy, healthcare and life sciences, entertainment and sports, pharmaceuticals, real estate and construction, banking, insurance and financial services.

Our attorneys publish frequently and widely both in local and international legal journals on topics practical and academic. Our website contains current and archived in-house articles on new legislation and important court decisions, and our yearly practice areas law reviews.

Practice groups
Business and finance: Moroğlu Arseven approaches business and finance clients holistically. Our counselling is rooted both in a profound understanding of the businesses and goals of our clients, and the nuances of the sectors within which they operate. This approach allows us to effectively evaluate and provide sophisticated, informed guidance to our clients on mergers and acquisitions, capital sourcing, shareholder derivative matters, restructuring, and myriad complex transactions and commercial contracts.  In addition, we service as local corporate counsel for several multinationals with operations in Turkey.

Compliance: Moroğlu Arseven maintains a broad practice covering anticorruption, antitrust, investigations, medical and pharmaceutical regulatory compliance, as well as data privacy and security. Our compliance group is a pioneer in these areas, where we have developed an expertise that can be found in no other full-service Turkish law firm.

Dispute resolution: Thanks to the expertise of our attorneys, we represent clients in high profile and complex arbitration and litigation cases. Our alternative dispute resolution practice continues to expand negotiating fair settlements of commercial, corporate, shareholders’ and large portfolio of employment disputes.

Intellectual property: We maintain a robust intellectual property practice with clients from a variety of industries. We assist clients to cost-effectively establish, define, maintain, protect, grow and leverage their Turkish intellectual property portfolios of trademarks, patent, industrial design, domain names. We have broad experience advising clients on copyrighting and protecting their creative works. We represent clients of all sizes to defend, enforce and exploit all their intellectual property rights before the Turkish courts, often in complex or high-stakes contexts. In addition, customised anti-counterfeiting and market clean-up projects are also a speciality for Moroğlu Arseven.
