FAMILY LAW
Family law covers a wide range of legal matters that directly affect private life, including relations between spouses, child custody, matrimonial property regimes, maintenance and compensation claims. As disputes in this area may have significant personal and financial consequences in addition to their legal effects, each matter requires careful consideration in light of its specific circumstances.
Erikel & Partners provides legal consultancy and litigation services in various areas of family law, including contested and uncontested divorce proceedings, maintenance and compensation claims, custody and personal relations with children, parentage, guardianship, liquidation of matrimonial property regimes, adoption, and disputes arising from the termination of engagement. The firm also advises clients on marriages between Turkish citizens and foreign nationals, as well as legal matters concerning family and children’s assets.
INHERITANCE LAW
Inheritance law governs the transfer of a deceased person’s estate, the rights and obligations of heirs, and the legal relationships arising in connection with the estate. Disputes in this area often require the joint assessment of several heirs, different types of assets, and legal transactions carried out in the past.

Its services include the preparation of wills and inheritance agreements, waiver of inheritance, disclaimer of inheritance, disputes arising from collusive transactions by the deceased, equalization claims, reduction claims, annulment of testamentary dispositions, and disputes concerning the distribution of the estate.
