UTS Legal is an Istanbul-based law firm focused on construction and infrastructure disputes, international arbitration and commercial contracts.
UTS Legal was established in Istanbul in 2021. The firm brings together experience in international arbitration and construction law with the contract and dispute management practice built over years inside the legal functions of major construction and infrastructure groups.
We treat a dispute not merely as a court or arbitration file, but as a decision to be taken in light of the client's commercial objectives, cash flow and reputation. At the contract stage we identify where risk accumulates; at the dispute stage we determine, together with the client, which route will actually deliver a result.
In Turkey and across borders, in Turkish and English, with the same rigour.
A limited number of matters, each handled in depth. The areas below define the firm's professional practice.
Counsel in commercial and investment arbitration; recognition, enforcement and execution of awards; management of the dispute from the pre-arbitration stage onwards.
The entire legal life of a project, from contract negotiation through claims to the dispute stage, with an understanding of how sites actually work.
From share acquisitions to the daily flow of commercial contracts; drafting, review and negotiation in Turkish and English.
Commercial lease relationships, real estate development and disputes arising from zoning and permit processes, with a strategy built around timing.
Contractual and tort claims, damages and liability disputes; securing the claim before the case begins.
Appeals and court actions against administrative acts; deadline discipline and a focus on resolution in disputes with public authorities.
