Şafak’s practice focuses on a broad spectrum of private law, primarily in employment law, contract law, and execution and bankruptcy law. She provides strategic legal consultancy to domestic and foreign companies—particularly those operating in the construction, real estate, and advertising sectors—on multi-dimensional projects such as commercial transactions, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and joint ventures.
In real estate and urban transformation processes, she provides end-to-end legal support at every stage; from the identification and demolition of at-risk structures to the execution of administrative procedures, the drafting of construction agreements in return for land share or revenue sharing, and the management of all negotiations and dispute resolutions between condominium owners and contractors.
Furthermore, to secure her clients' brands, trade secrets, and creative projects, Şafak conducts comprehensive contracting and protection processes in the fields of intellectual and industrial property rights and advertising law. Thanks to her extensive litigation and courtroom experience, she achieves fast, practical, and effective results in the resolution of all types of disputes, particularly those concerning employment law and commercial relations. She meticulously manages debt collection and the administration of debts subject to legal proceedings with a result-oriented approach.
Acting on the principle of "preventive law," which aims to resolve legal risks before they evolve into disputes, Şafak provides proactive consultancy in individual employment law, collective redundancies, and employee-employer relations. She also continuously actively advises on the restructuring, downsizing, or capital increase processes of companies' commercial activities, as well as the negotiation, comprehensive drafting, and revision of all types of commercial contracts.
