With a deep commitment to labor law, Rana M. Yilmaz is a pivotal force in our firm. A graduate of Marmara University Law School, she earned admission to the Istanbul Bar in 2000, marking the beginning of her impressive legal career.

Rana’s specialization in labor law sets her apart. She is recognized as one of the foremost experts in “journalist/press related labor law.” Her expertise in this niche area has been instrumental in representing numerous distinguished journalists, anchormen, and columnists. Her impact extends beyond the courtroom as she shares her knowledge by lecturing at various universities on the “legal rights of journalists and press employees.”

In addition to her advocacy for individuals in press-related labor law matters, Rana provides invaluable legal consultancy to employers. Her services encompass a comprehensive range of labor law-related matters, offering A to Z consultancy—from crafting specific employment contracts to fine-tuning the content of a standard payroll and even advising on labor law-related insurance policies.

While Rana and her team at the firm are adept at representing clients before mediators and courts in disputes, her primary goal has always been to mitigate risks and spare clients from protracted legal battles.

Beyond law, Rana is the proud mother of two daughters. She finds inspiration in literature, history, and politics, reflecting her multifaceted interests and her dedication to a broader understanding of the world.
