Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

• Ömer Erdoğan is, for me, one of the hardest-working and most talented lawyers in the Turkish market. I have been working with him for over 12 years, and he has never disappointed us and has always delivered top-quality legal support in various fields. He is one of the best project finance and banking finance lawyers, and he is probably the best lawyer in real estate matters too. He and his team members are always available and work as if they are members of our in-house teams. Berke Yalçın is also a rising star in the field of banking, project finance, and capital markets. He is always available and works long hours with us, delivering high-quality legal advice consistently.
• Gen Temizer Erdoğan Girgin is our preferred legal counsel for many years, especially Omer Erdogan, who has been our go-to name for over 12 years and has assisted us on various projects and our ongoing operations with his very efficient and talented team. The team at Gen Temizer Erdogan is always responsive, delivers high-quality clear advice, and works like an in-house team member, always available and there for us whenever we need. They are a true full-service law firm and they cover all legal practice areas we need as a company. Their young and hard-working team is definitely one of the best in the market. Also, different from many other law firms, they share know-how and help train our team members on various topics with the high-quality training they deliver.
• They are well-organized, very attentive, and responsive. Their senior team members are available when needed and always provide fast and efficient assistance. The practice head, Ömer Erdoğan, has an impressive track record in project finance, and you can see this while working with him, both on the drafting and negotiation of transaction documents. Their team is expanding with recent senior hires, which shows that they are being recognized now by many other corporations too. I genuinely share this feedback.
