Administrative Law

Administrative law is one of the fundamental branches of public law regulating the activities of public institutions and organizations, the powers and responsibilities of administrative authorities, and the legal relations between individuals and the administration. Disputes arising during the execution of administrative acts unilateral in nature by virtue of public power, administrative actions, and the provision of public services fall within the scope of administrative law.

Ensuring that powers possessed by administrative authorities are exercised in accordance with the law, protecting fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals, and subjecting administrative acts and actions to judicial review are among the essential requirements of the rule of law. Accordingly, administrative courts examine administrative acts in terms of competence, form, reason, subject, and purpose, and may rule to annul the act should an illegality be identified.

Kirişçi Law Firm provides legal consultancy to natural and legal persons in the field of administrative law. We operate in preparing administrative applications, managing objection processes against administrative acts, and pursuing lawsuits to be filed before administrative courts and other administrative judicial authorities.

In disputes arising from administrative acts and actions, our firm comprehensively evaluates the specific characteristics of the case, the legal basis of the act, notification dates, application and statutory time limits, as well as potential outcomes, thereby identifying the necessary legal remedies to prevent any loss of rights.

Our Practice Areas

1. Annulment and Full Remedy Actions

Annulment of unlawful administrative acts and compensation for resulting damages.

2. Disciplinary and Professional Sanction Lawsuits

4. Stay of Execution

Annulment and Full Remedy Actions

Annulment actions are filed with the aim of removing administrative acts from the legal order on the grounds that they are unlawful. In cases where individuals suffer material or non-material damages due to administrative acts or actions, full remedy actions (actions for damages) may be initiated. In full remedy actions, the administration’s service fault (faute de service), strict liability (liability without fault), the unlawful act or action, and the causal link between the conduct and the resulting damage are evaluated, and compensation for the damage is requested.

Our Working Approach

In disputes arising from administrative law, the process often begins with the notification of the administrative act to the concerned party. Accurate determination of the notification date is of critical importance for calculating the statutory time limit for filing a lawsuit. In certain disputes, submitting an administrative application to the relevant authority prior to litigation may be mandatory or legally beneficial.

Depending on the nature of the dispute, an appeal (istinaf) may be lodged before the Regional Administrative Court against first-instance court decisions, and where provided for by law, a further appeal (temyiz) before the Council of State may be requested. Additionally, processes such as eliminating the consequences of an act annulled by judicial decision, reinstating the individual to their duty or prior legal status, and claiming uncollected financial rights are managed separately.

Disputes in administrative law require meticulous examination and regular follow-up due to short statutory limitation periods, technical procedural rules, and the direct impact of administrative acts on individuals. Therefore, in every case, the legal basis of the act, its enactment process, method of notification, implementation consequences, and available judicial remedies are evaluated comprehensively.

Kirişçi Law Firm conducts its practice in administrative law in line with up-to-date legislation, court precedents, and administrative practices, offering legal services across all stages—from pre-litigation administrative applications to the enforcement of finalized court decisions.
