Our Story
Aksan Law Firm was established in 1984. Initially focusing on the legal affairs of companies in the textile industry, it gradually expanded its portfolio. Over time, it shifted its focus towards international trade, especially export transactions, and effectively continued its activities on a global scale.
At the beginning of the 2000s, Aksan increased its consultancy services for corporate clients in the finance, heavy industry, and pharmaceutical sectors. It also developed internal support units such as human resources, finance, and information technology to provide more comprehensive services to its clients.
By the 2010s, Aksan expanded its service areas and developed a new approach aimed at technology-focused companies and both domestic and foreign investors. Establishing a pioneering team in Turkey, Aksan continued its activities in this field. Additionally, by opening a new office in Teknopark Istanbul, it aimed to provide closer and more direct services to technology companies.
Additionally, Aksan has established working groups in areas such as mergers and acquisitions, tax law, and intellectual property law, continuing to provide our clients with comprehensive and high-quality services.
