Testimonials

‘I have been impressed with the team and its knowledge. The fact that it is able to deal with both Turkish and foreign tax laws makes it a preferred choice. I don't have much experience with other firms in Turkey but I have found the Durukan and Partners team to be very professional.’
‘I have worked with both senior employees, like Begüm Özaydin, and junior employees, like Damla Göksel and Ezgi Ozdemir, and have been pleased with all.’
