KL Law Firm

About Us

The clients of KL Law Firm come from all over the world, from many different countries and regions. Rather than a general practice spread across unrelated fields such as criminal law or divorce cases, our firm focuses solely on legal services for foreign nationals who need to carry out any kind of legal matter in Turkey.

At the heart of our work is Turkish citizenship by investment; with our Izmir-based team of Turkish citizenship by investment lawyers, we manage these processes from start to finish. Beyond Izmir, we serve clients throughout Turkey, led by Istanbul, Mugla, Aydin and Antalya, and in areas where foreign real estate investment is concentrated such as Bodrum, Cesme, Fethiye, Kusadasi, Didim, Marmaris and Alanya, providing legal services led by Turkish citizenship by investment.

This focus makes us the only law firm in our region that serves foreign clients exclusively on a corporate footing. The thousands of applications and legal matters we have handled to date have reinforced our expertise and hands-on experience in immigration law.

Attorney Pınar Konaç Levent

Founding Partner

Pınar Konaç Levent is a founding partner of KL Law Firm who guides foreigners investing in Turkey and those who wish to build a new life there. She is registered with the Izmir Bar Association and, since the beginning of her career, has worked exclusively in Turkish citizenship, immigration and foreigners law, building her expertise in this field. She completed her legal education in Izmir.

At the center of her approach lies the patient work of making a legal process that first appears complex clear and understandable to a foreign client. When she takes on a case, she first establishes what the client truly wants and where they stand legally, then builds the process on that foundation. She knows well how sensitive foreigners law is to deadlines and administrative detail, and she treats preparing her clients against possible risks in advance as a natural part of her work.

The focus of her expertise is Turkish citizenship by investment. As an Izmir Turkish citizenship lawyer, she takes an active role in the processes of foreigners seeking Turkish citizenship through real estate or other investment routes. Residence permits through property purchase, family and short-term residence permits, work permits, and company formation for foreigners in Turkey are also among the areas she regularly handles.

Cases that develop into disputes form an important part of her professional experience as well. Litigation against deportation and administrative detention decisions, along with recognition and enforcement proceedings that give foreign court judgments legal effect in Turkey, are among the areas that reflect her experience on the litigation side.

Pınar Konaç Levent is a lawyer who assesses each client's situation within its own circumstances and moves forward without haste, keeping legal security at the forefront. In her relationships with foreign clients, she places openness and trust at the core.

Attorney Alparslan Levent

Founding Partner

Alparslan Levent is an attorney registered with the Izmir Bar Association and a founding partner of KL Law Firm. He completed his legal education in Izmir and, since the start of his career, has devoted his work to Turkish citizenship, immigration and foreigners law. He specializes above all in Turkish citizenship by investment, residence permits through real estate, corporate work permits, and the company matters of foreign investors.

As an Izmir-based Turkish citizenship by investment lawyer, what sets him apart is the way he approaches every case with a complete strategy from the outset. He never treats a foreign investor's goal as a single application; he sees it as a whole made up of interconnected steps, anticipating the legal consequences of the investment decision from the very beginning and turning the process into a predictable plan.

In Turkish citizenship by investment matters, he is known for handling the entire path as one, from defining the legal framework of the investment to the final citizenship decision. He brings the same holistic approach to residence permits through real estate and to company formation for foreigners in Turkey, coordinating the different institutions and stages so that the client can follow the process with ease. When a corporate work permit is involved, he moves forward while considering the foreign employee and the employer at the same time.

In every file he takes on, his priority is that the foreign client genuinely understands the step to be taken in Turkey and makes decisions based on solid information. He aims to identify possible administrative and practical problems before a transaction takes place, keeping the process free of surprises. By explaining seemingly complex matters in plain language, he makes it easier for foreign investors to decide with confidence.

Drawing on years of experience, Alparslan Levent turns complex applications and transactions into a clear roadmap and personally follows the files he takes on from beginning to end.
