Education Law

Administrative decisions taken during education can directly affect the future of a student or academic. Since deadlines for applications and lawsuits against these decisions are limited, prompt and correct action is required. As Çakır Law Firm, we act in disputes arising from decisions of schools, universities, the Ministry of National Education and the Council of Higher Education (YÖK).

Main Areas of Work

• Objections to and annulment actions against student disciplinary penalties
• Objections to exam results, grades and graduation decisions
• Foreign diploma equivalence and transfers between programmes
• Fee, enrolment and contract disputes with private schools
• Appointment, staffing and disciplinary procedures for academic staff
• Compliance advice for educational institutions

The deadline for filing a lawsuit against administrative acts is generally 60 days from notification; it is important not to miss it.
