Lawyer job in Istanbul

Hello,

I am a lawyer originally from Ukraine who is seeking for a job in Istanbul. I understand that without being a Turkish citizen (yet) and without being registered with a Turkish Bar, I cannot work as an advocat. But it should be possible to work as a consultant in a law firm, especially in one which might be looking after cases between Turkey and Ukraine establishments.

What are the possibilities of finding such a job in Turkey and what kind of a path I should follow? Are there any specific web sites for law employment in Turkey?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Lena

Dear Lena,
according to the legislation, you can just work in fields of foreign laws and international law.But dont hesitate and be dissappointed.Because Turkey needs also foreign lawyers.There are a lot of turkish law firms working international and also a lot of ukrainian investments in Turkey.At 2006 I was in Kiev.You have a fantastic country.I contacted a lot of international law firms there.It is important to be in Istanbul because Istanbul is the most international city.What about your Turkish?

Now it s better for u, to try to work as a consultant in an international trade firm.up to your conditions will be suitable to work as a lawyer in Turkiye..
