Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

• ‘Over the past decade, I have witnessed Erdem’s impressive journey from his early days as an intern to his current position as a partner. His loyalty and consistency not only reflect his character but also reassure clients that he is a lawyer who can be trusted to safeguard their interests with unwavering commitment. Zeynep distinguishes herself with her deep expertise, particularly in labor law. Through her guidance, both within GBG and for our shared clients, we have observed a clear improvement in outcomes favouring employers, largely due to her effective structuring of HR processes in line with labor law requirements. In a profession where bridging the gap between law and finance is often difficult, Deniz’s unique ability to provide financial insight through a legal framework is of immense value. Clients particularly appreciate his capacity to translate legal complexities into financial clarity. Altuğ, meanwhile, brings a fresh and forward-looking perspective. His innovative mindset and dedication to nurturing young talent have been instrumental in shaping the firm’s growth and laying down strong foundations. He places great emphasis on teamwork and actively supports the development of those around him. Beyond his professional strengths, Altuğ’s calm and respectful nature sets the tone for a positive and collaborative working environment.’
• ‘I primarily collaborate with Altuğ and Zeynep, both of whom stand out for different reasons. Altuğ is highly practical and results-driven, consistently focused on delivering effective and efficient solutions. Zeynep impresses with her strong command of employment law and her ability to achieve favourable outcomes, often exceeding expectations. Zeynep has repeatedly succeeded in litigation or, better yet, resolved disputes without the need for court proceedings. Her expertise, strategic thinking, and ability to secure solutions that align with client needs to make her a highly valuable and trusted advisor.’
