Ozay Law Firm, which started with 6 people in 2013, has grown at a
 rate of approximately 35% per year in terms of number of attorneys and
 currently operating with 70 people in total.

&nbsp; 

We have adopted the principle of developing the litigation and
 consultancy sides equally and have given importance to this balance in order
 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.
 We mainly prefer to establish long-term and broad-scaled co-operations rather
 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.
