whether transactional or litigation, involve cross-practice efforts – e.g.,
where attorneys from the firm’s three departments work together – so as to take
full advantage of the firm’s deeply-experienced, multi-disciplinary,
professionals. LeadershipNo Turkish law firm’s upper management
has the breath, depth or effectiveness of ASC Law’s. Each of our three Founding

 rate of approximately 35% per year in terms of number of attorneys and

 for each side to benefit each other. With this service mentality, in 8 years,
 we have reached the number of corporate clients exceeding 75, with whom we are
 currently cooperating. Having started with five corporate clients in the
 beginning, we believe that our positive reputation in the sector and the high
 level of contentedness of our clients have brought us this outstanding success.

 than individual projects or lawsuits. Based on this approach, we mainly provide
 support to our clients in their whole litigation and/or consultancy processes
 and make aggregate reporting in order to have access to a broad perspective regarding
 the legal situation of the company.
