Çalışkan Hukuk Bürosu

What Çalışkan Hukuk Bürosu does

Çalışkan Hukuk Bürosu is a regional Turkish law firm founded in 1997 by Attorney Zihni Çalışkan and headquartered in Odunpazarı, Eskişehir. The firm operates as an individual proprietorship under founder ownership with no parent company, external investors, or subsidiaries, and serves clients across four provinces in western/central Turkey — Eskişehir, Bilecik, Afyonkarahisar, and Kütahya. It specializes in Banking Law, Insurance Law, Labor Law, and Execution and Bankruptcy Law, with additional practice areas spanning compensation, commercial, consumer, health, real estate, civil, and inheritance law. The firm is registered with the Eskişehir Bar Association under Sicil No: 895.

The firm is staffed by a 22–24 person team consisting of 7 attorneys, 13 office staff, and 2 interns. Notable personnel include founder Zihni Çalışkan (20+ years of practice, bilingual English/Bulgarian), Managing Attorney Mehmet Bilgin (27+ years of public-sector legal experience at the Ministry of National Defense, joined 2017), and Coordinator Lawyer Feyzanur Çetinkaya (mediator certification, labor and insurance law). The team's underlying technology consists of computer-supported case management and execution tracking systems; the firm's only branded digital product is E-Tahsilat, a virtual POS-based electronic collection service integrated with Param.com.tr that allows clients to pay execution debts and case fees by credit card across 7 Turkish card brands (Bonus, World, Maximum, Axess, Paraf, CardFinans, Advantage) in single or installment form.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional services fees for litigation, legal consultation, execution proceedings, and contract preparation, supplemented by transaction fees from E-Tahsilat credit card processing. The firm serves as regional representative for multiple insurance companies and banking institutions, providing legal services in credit disputes, mortgage operations, insurance claims, and compensation matters. Its customer base is hybrid: enterprise (insurance companies, banks, corporate institutions) and individuals (compensation claims, consumer disputes, family law). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; legal services are quoted case-by-case. Marketing is constrained by Turkey Bar Association advertising prohibition rules, and the firm relies on professional reputation and regional presence rather than active demand generation.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• YükselKarkınKüçük Attorney Partnership: Major Turkish law firm with strong banking & finance, litigation, and execution/enforcement practices. Provides national-level competition for the kind of institutional work Çalışkan performs regionally.
• Moroğlu Arseven: Full-service Istanbul law firm with banking, insurance, labor, and commercial litigation practices—directly mirroring Çalışkan's core specialties. Competes for institutional clients across Turkey.
• Hergüner Bilgen Üçer Attorney Partnership: One of Turkey's largest full-service law firms headquartered in Istanbul, with banking, finance, and litigation practices comparable to Çalışkan's core areas. Operates broadly rather than regionally and competes for the same institutional banking and insurance clients at a larger scale.
• Pekin & Pekin: Long-established Istanbul law firm with banking, finance, and corporate practices. Comparable to Çalışkan in banking law specialization but serves national and international clients.
• Akıncı Hukuk Bürosu: Ankara-based Turkish law firm with banking, insurance, and commercial practices. Geographically closer peer than Istanbul firms and overlaps with Çalışkan's institutional client focus.
• Gün + Partners: Established full-service Turkish law firm with strong banking & finance, insurance, and dispute resolution practices, including significant execution and bankruptcy work. Overlaps directly with Çalışkan's specialized areas but at national/international scale.
• Paksoy Avukatlık Ortaklığı: Boutique Istanbul-based law firm with prominent banking, finance, and commercial practices. Comparable to Çalışkan in practice-area focus on banking and insurance law, but serves larger corporate clients across Turkey.

Direct peers

• Aksan Attorney Partnership: Turkish law firm with banking, finance, and dispute resolution practices. Comparable in scope and practice-area mix to Çalışkan's regional full-service legal offering.
• Cerrahoğlu Hukuk Bürosu: Turkish law firm offering banking, insurance, and commercial litigation services comparable to Çalışkan's practice areas. Operates at a smaller scale similar to regional Turkish firms.

Others

• Param (Turkcell Ödeme Hizmetleri): Turkish payment infrastructure provider whose virtual POS system Çalışkan integrated for its E-Tahsilat platform. Adjacent technology provider rather than a legal competitor, but materially relevant given the firm's flagship digital product.
