Administrative Law
The Turkish system contains a general distinction between private (civil) law affairs and issues in relation with the Government and State administrative entities. Accordingly, issues between individuals or businesses with governmental bodies and regulations involving customs, zoning, government sanctions and taxes, for example, fall under a special regime governed by administrative procedure which also has its own dedicated court system.
Akol assists clients on administrative matters such as annulment of administrative proceedings and sanctions, objections against Public Procurement Agency decisions, cancellation of tax calculations and fines issued by Revenue Administration, Tax Offices or Customs Administrations, objections against development and housing processes and execution of juridical procedures.
We represent our clients before administrative authorities for objections, negotiations or permissions and before administrative courts including the highest administrative court of appeals 'the Council of State' for the purposes of resolving disputes.
