Contract Law
Contract law is a legal field that forms the foundation of legal relationships between parties and regulates the rights and obligations arising from these relationships. A contract is established when at least two parties mutually express their will in a manner that produces legal consequences.
Under the principle of contractual freedom, parties are free to enter into contracts as long as they do not violate the law or moral standards. However, this freedom is subject to limitations imposed by mandatory legal provisions, public order, and morality. Contract law is governed by various legislative frameworks, including the Turkish Code of Obligations, Commercial Code, Consumer Protection Law, and other relevant regulations.
