Murat Yilmaz is one of our senior lawyers here at LLI. He has been with us for 7 years. He completed his law degree at Cankaya University in 2009 after earning a full scholarship. He was at top 1% of his faculty.
Murat is a powerful and a hard working lawyer. He is trained as a litigation lawyer but he handles our clients’ corporate matters as well. He is solution oriented and his main aim is always to avoid litigation where he can, hence his files have a high rate of settlement and/or quick completion. Murat has high work ethic, he would work on a public holiday just to finish a job he has started even though we tell him not to, he does not believe in leaving a case or report half way this is what inspires us most about Murat.
Murat’s strengths:
Litigation, strong client relationships, integrity
