Independent English-language guidance for people and businesses with a legal matter governed by Turkish law.
Short answer
Av. Emirhan Keskin is registered with Mersin Bar Association under number 5507 and is a co-founder of Bakırcı & Keskin Hukuk Bürosu in Mersin. His work under Turkish law includes enforcement and insolvency, commercial and employment, tenancy and property matters. International clients can hold consultations and case meetings directly in English or Turkish. This profile contains no foreign specialist title or outcome guarantee.
Public registration and scope of the profile
Av. Emirhan Keskin’s professional identity can be checked by name and Mersin Bar Association registration number 5507. Public verification is particularly important when a client abroad receives payment details or is asked to send confidential records.
The profile concerns Turkish legal work. English-language communication does not mean admission before English courts or advice on English law. Cross-border questions may require separately instructed professionals in more than one jurisdiction.
Enforcement, commercial, employment and property-related work
A debt file may involve contract, evidence, service, enforcement, objection and asset questions. A commercial or employment dispute may require mandatory preliminary procedures, while a tenancy or property matter combines title, payment, notice and possession evidence.
The office assesses the legal basis, procedural route, limitation, competent body and recoverability rather than treating the practice-area label as an answer. Acceptance depends on conflicts, capacity and the actual file.
Evidence, procedure and reportable milestones
The first review maps the client’s role, objective, deadline, documents and evidence. Contracts, invoices, bank records, registry entries, notices and correspondence are linked to the fact they are intended to prove.
The mandate and power of attorney are then defined. Material filings, service, objections, mediation, hearings, expert reports, judgments, settlement proposals and payments are reported through the agreed channel.
Direct English communication and work across Turkey
Av. Emirhan Keskin and the office can conduct consultations, online meetings and routine case communication directly in English or Turkish. An interpreter can be considered for another language, but interpretation remains separate from legal judgment.
The office is located in Mersin and may, after assessing jurisdiction and practical requirements, handle or coordinate work before competent institutions elsewhere in Turkey. Hearing, inspection or local-action needs are identified before acceptance.
Practical example
A company in England asks Av. Emirhan Keskin to collect unpaid Turkish invoices and consider settlement. The exact debtor, contract, delivery, maturity, objections and asset position are checked. The mandate permits the identified collection route, while any discount, instalment plan or release is submitted for written client approval and incoming payments are reported separately.
Documents for the first review
A complete and chronological first package makes deadline, jurisdiction and evidence review more reliable. The following items are usually the most useful starting point:
- Identity and exact legal names of every party
- Contract, invoice and performance evidence
- Payment and reconciliation records
- Latest notice, objection or court document
- Desired outcome and settlement limits, if any

Verify name and number 5507 in the public bar register.
2. Debtor and legal route
Confirm debtor and legal route before pursuing speed.
3. Written settlement authority
Keep settlement, receipt of money and release decisions in writing.

Responsible lawyers and public registration
Professional identity can be checked in the public Mersin Bar Association register. Registration confirms status; it does not promise the result, duration or economic value of a particular matter.
Transparent instructions, reporting and fees
Living abroad, being described as an expatriate or earning income in euros does not by itself increase the fee. Any proposal is assessed under Turkish professional rules and according to the scope, urgency, documents, procedural work and responsibility required by the particular matter.
A power of attorney defines legal authority; it is not a blanket instruction to carry out every possible act. Material steps, settlement authority, receipt of money and disposal powers are tied to the agreed scope and the client’s written instructions.
The office can hold initial and ongoing meetings online in English or Turkish. Significant developments are reported through agreed channels so that the client can follow the work without travelling to Mersin for every step. No result, duration or final total can be guaranteed before the file and competent procedure are reviewed.
Legal and language note
The office advises on Turkish law and is based in Mersin. Consultations, online meetings and routine case communication can be conducted directly in English or Turkish. If another language is needed, interpretation may be arranged where appropriate. This page provides general information and contains no guarantee of outcome, duration or cost.
