Çağın Öztenay

Founding partner of the firm, advising international buyers, developers and companies on property, corporate and commercial matters in Northern Cyprus.

Çağın Öztenay founded Öztenay Law Firm in Famagusta in 2009. He advises international buyers, developers, construction companies and corporate clients on property, corporate and commercial matters in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, and conducts the firm's litigation.

Practice

His work centres on immovable property: title investigation, the drafting and registration of sales contracts, purchase permit applications, and the transfer of title. A substantial part of it is for clients outside Northern Cyprus who are committing significant sums in a legal system they have no reason to know, and who therefore need the position set out in writing rather than described to them over the telephone.

Alongside that he acts for companies — formation and structuring for foreign shareholders, shareholder and joint venture agreements, and commercial contracts — and appears in the civil and commercial courts, principally in property and contractual disputes and in urgent applications for injunctive relief.

Approach

Searches before deposits. Advice in writing. Independence from the other side of the transaction, including a policy of not taking introducer commissions from developers or agents whose sales the firm is checking. And a preference for telling a client early that a deal is unsound, rather than being paid to document it and then paid again to litigate it.

Languages

Turkish and English.
