In such emotionally charged matters, the guidance of a lawyer makes a meaningful difference.

Frequently asked questions

What are the requirements for an uncontested divorce?

The marriage must have lasted at least one year, and the spouses must apply together or one spouse must accept the other’s petition. The judge hears both spouses in person and grants the divorce if the agreement on its financial consequences and on the children is found appropriate.

Which court hears a divorce case?

A divorce action may be filed at the family court of either spouse’s domicile or of the place where the spouses lived together for the last six months before the action. For spouses living in Bakırköy, the competent courts are the Bakırköy Family Courts.

How is child custody decided?

The court decides custody based on the child’s best interests, taking into account the child’s age, education, relationship with each parent and, if old enough, the child’s own views. Joint custody may also be considered where circumstances allow.
