History
Pekin Bayar Mizrahi is a leading top-tier law firm located in Istanbul, Türkiye.
The firm was founded by Mr. Fethi Pekin, who was a former judge, in 1946. Ms. Sefika Pekin and Ms. Selin Bayar subsequently joined the firm. In time, the firm has broadened its areas of expertise and the sectors it advises; thereby becoming a “full-service” firm with a global reach. In 2021, its dispute resolution partner, Mr. Mizrahi, became a name partner and the firm changed its corporate name as Pekin Bayar Mizrahi.
With its local and international experience of 75 years, Pekin Bayar Mizrahi is now one of the largest law firms in Türkiye in both size and volume, employing around 50 counsels and 20 supporting staff. The firm also has liaison offices and affiliate counsels in numerous cities in Türkiye. The firm has international practice and its clients include States, large financial institutions, and transnational corporations from various sectors.
