Corporate and Commercial Law

At ANKA, we provide comprehensive corporate and commercial law and M&A services to support businesses throughout their entire lifecycle — from establishment and governance to complex cross-border transactions and strategic partnerships.

We advise a diverse client base that includes local and international corporations, investors, entrepreneurs, and start-ups/scale-ups. Our team combines in-depth legal expertise with a practical and business-oriented approach, helping clients navigate regulatory frameworks and achieve their strategic objectives.

In addition to assisting foreign investors entering the Turkish market, we also work closely with Turkish companies seeking to invest abroad or expand their operations internationally. Our lawyers provide end-to-end support — from structuring outbound investments and establishing subsidiaries to managing compliance and negotiating cross-border commercial agreements.

Our expertise in Corporate, Commercial and M&A services is further strengthened by the academic work of our Managing Partner, Dr. Zahide Altunbaş Sancak, whose PhD dissertation focused on the seller’s liability arising from the breach of representations and warranties in M&A transactions, examined from a comparative law perspective under Turkish, German, and Swiss law. This unique background provides our clients with deep, cross-jurisdictional insight into one of the most complex aspects of M&A negotiations, allowing us to anticipate risks, craft robust contractual protections, and deliver strategies that stand up to international standards.

Our experienced team deliver integrated, forward-looking solutions. Whether advising on company formation, corporate governance, M&A transactions, commercial contracts, compliance, or restructuring, we are committed to providing clear, tailored, and effective advice.

With multilingual capabilities and international experience, we are well-positioned to guide clients through both domestic and cross-border matters, helping them manage risks and seize opportunities in today’s global marketplace.
