In March 2025, the Legal 500 EMEA 2025 guide ranked Vircon Legal for the first time in the Commercial, Corporate and M&A — Turkey category. With this recognition, Legal 500 — one of the most established international guides offering independent assessments of legal markets — positioned Vircon Legal’s integrated startup-law practice as a reference firm.
The central thesis of the recognition was clear: Vircon Legal’s deep expertise in startup law; the integrated value it produces across financing, advisory and transactions (on both buy and sell sides); and the experience it brings to new ventures in international markets formed the core grounds for the ranking.
Legal 500 editorial commentary
