Attorney at law, AI ethics & compliance counsel. We don't just ensure AI companies meet the EU AI Act, KVKK, and GDPR—we build the documented, defensible legal architecture that allows them to scale safely across borders.
As a licensed attorney and business strategist with over fifteen years of experience in international contracts, technology law, and corporate risk management, I have guided companies through complex, cross-border regulatory landscapes. Today, I focus that deep expertise on a single, urgent challenge for modern tech founders: How do you build, deploy, and scale AI systems in a way that is legally sound, ethically responsible, and fiercely defensible?
A shield, not just a rubber stamp.
Our core offering goes beyond generic checklists. We provide a rigorous Legal and Ethical Compliance Review: a meticulously documented gap assessment of your AI system against current and upcoming obligations, culminating in a signed, formal legal attestation. This is deliberate, professional legal counsel. It provides your stakeholders, partners, and investors with credible assurance, mitigating liability without overstating what any single audit can promise.
How I work
Principles we work by.
Engineering-friendly legal counsel
We work directly with founders, engineers, and product teams in plain language—eliminating academic legal jargon. Whether in English or Turkish, our goal is proactive risk mitigation. We keep the focus on actionable decisions so you can ship your product with confidence.
Integrated seamlessly with your Agile sprints
Unlike traditional counsel, we don't wait for the final product launch to say "no." We work shoulder-to-shoulder with your product teams from the initial design phase, integrating compliance directly into your architecture. This prevents costly backward revisions, reduces friction, and accelerates your time-to-market.
Turning compliance into a competitive advantage
We view legal frameworks not as roadblocks, but as keys to unlocking enterprise clients and the European market. By building a robust legal and ethical foundation from day one, we prevent costly delays during audits, strengthen your hand in due diligence, and enable you to scale globally with absolute confidence.
