ATK Law Firm — Criminal Defense Lawyer in Istanbul

ATK Law Firm provides professional legal defense and consultancy services in criminal law and related practice areas across Istanbul. Founded by Att. Akin Timur Kanal, the firm delivers client-focused, evidence-based legal support from the investigation phase through to trial and appeal.

We represent clients at Istanbul's major courthouses — including Istanbul Anadolu Palace of Justice (Kartal) and Istanbul Palace of Justice (Caglayan) — in files ranging from heavy criminal cases and drug offenses to illegal betting, corporate disputes, and debt collection matters.

Our Practice Areas

Criminal Lawyer

Legal defense in criminal investigations and prosecutions — from custody and interrogation through to trial. We handle all stages of the criminal process with a focus on protecting our clients' rights from the outset.

Heavy Criminal Lawyer

Representation in cases heard before the heavy criminal court — including serious crimes carrying long prison sentences. We provide strategic defense grounded in technical evidence analysis and comprehensive file management.

Intentional Homicide Lawyer

Defense in intentional homicide cases from investigation and custody through to heavy criminal court proceedings and appeal. Forensic reports, witness accounts, self-defense, and provocation claims are all carefully evaluated.

Intentional Injury Lawyer

Legal support in intentional injury files — complaint, statement, mediation, and criminal trial proceedings. We advise both suspects and victims on evidence, classification, and strategy.

Drug Offense Lawyer

Defense in drug trafficking (TCK 188) and drug use (TCK 191) cases. We analyze evidence critically — substance quantity, packaging, HTS data, and search/seizure lawfulness — to build a rigorous defense.

Illegal Betting Lawyer

Criminal defense in investigations under Law No. 7258 — covering illegal betting, unlicensed gambling, MASAK investigations, bank freezes, asset seizure, and judicial control measures.

Divorce Lawyer

Legal representation in divorce proceedings — contested and uncontested divorces, custody, alimony, asset division, and family law disputes.

Bankruptcy & Debt Collection Lawyer

Management of enforcement proceedings, debt collection, and bankruptcy processes. From negotiation to court proceedings, we represent creditors and debtors with clear strategic advice.

Corporate Lawyer

Legal consultancy for companies — contract management, company formation, general assembly decisions, commercial disputes, labor law, and KVKK (personal data) compliance.
