Lease Law

The preventive law approach in lease law encompasses taking precautions before disputes are brought to court or before problems even arise, drafting contracts carefully, and strategically managing statutory time periods. Under Turkish Code of Obligations (TCO) No. 6098, the main advantages offered by these protective legal services in tenant-landlord relations are as follows:

In terms of preventing rights losses at the contract stage, carefully examining special provisions such as subletting and transfer of usage rights when drafting a lease agreement prevents future disputes from the outset. Additionally, it is extremely critical that the eviction undertaking be drafted in compliance with the conditions for validity.

Cost and time savings are also important. An incorrect eviction attempt may lead to legal sanctions, while a missed notification deadline may cause the landlord to lose one year. Receiving preventive legal counsel to avoid such errors is always less costly than taking a dispute to court.
