Focus Areas

At the intersection of traditional practice areas, interdisciplinary areas of focused expertise.

Our eight focus areas are built around recurring client needs, combining several fields of law under one strategic framework to provide a single point of resolution for complex matters.

A focus area is a solution package that combines several legal disciplines around one strategic objective. For example, Expansion into Germany brings corporate, tax, employment and immigration law together. Practice areas, by contrast, are individual legal disciplines.

Our principal focus areas include expansion into Germany and Türkiye, market access, ESG and sustainability, crisis management, accounting and payroll, residence and citizenship, and LegalTech. Each brings the relevant legal disciplines together under one roof.

It is designed for companies entering a new market that want company formation, investment structuring, tax, workforce and compliance processes managed through one team. We provide end-to-end support to Turkish companies entering Germany and German/DACH companies entering Türkiye.

Yes—that is precisely the purpose of focus areas. Instead of splitting a complex, multidimensional objective such as international expansion across separate disciplines, we combine all relevant expertise in one coordinated team.
