I am pleased to announce that Volkov Law Group, P.C. has entered into a formal strategic alliance with CBC Law, one of Turkey’s most respected and internationally recognized law firms. This partnership formalizes a relationship built over years of successful collaboration and reflects our shared commitment to delivering the highest level of legal counsel to clients navigating the complex intersection of U.S. and Turkish law.

About CBC Law

CBC Law is an Istanbul-based firm with a well-established international practice spanning corporate compliance, anti-corruption, sanctions, internal investigations, dispute resolution, intellectual property, and data privacy. The firm advises a sophisticated client base that includes multinationals, financial institutions, and global corporations operating across Turkey and the broader region.

What distinguishes CBC Law is not just the breadth of their practice — it is the depth of their track record. CBC Law has successfully represented clients in matters before the OFAC, the U.K. Serious Fraud Office, the Financial Conduct Authority, the Prudential Regulatory Authority, and BaFin. They have achieved successful delistings of designated Turkish entities from the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list — a complex, high-stakes process that demands both legal mastery and strategic judgment. They have designed and implemented ethics and compliance programs for global corporations operating in Turkey, and they have represented clients in precedent-setting cross-border investigations involving fraud, corruption, bribery, sanctions violations, and whistleblower matters.

CBC Law is led by Managing Partner Kemal Altug Ozgun, whose expertise in cross-border compliance and white-collar matters is widely recognized across the international legal community.

Why This Alliance Matters

The legal and regulatory environment connecting the United States and Turkey has never been more complex. U.S. companies with Turkish operations face a dense web of FCPA exposure, OFAC sanctions risk, AML compliance obligations, and data privacy requirements. Turkish multinationals with U.S. operations face their own set of challenges, from FCPA enforcement risk to whistleblower exposure and DOJ scrutiny.

Our two firms bring complementary and powerful capabilities to this challenge. Volkov Law brings deep expertise in U.S. compliance, anti-corruption, internal investigations, and white-collar defense. CBC Law brings unmatched Turkish legal expertise across the same disciplines. Together, we offer clients something that neither firm could provide alone: fully integrated, cross-border legal coverage from two firms who have worked together and know how to deliver.

Our Commitment to You

This alliance is not simply a referral arrangement. It is a working relationship built on trust, shared values, and a track record of collaboration. When you engage either firm on a matter with a cross-border dimension, you benefit from coordinated strategy, clear communication, and the combined expertise of both teams.

If your organization has legal needs in Turkey — whether related to OFAC sanctions, compliance program development, internal investigations, or corporate transactions — I encourage you to reach out. I will personally facilitate an introduction to Altug Ozgun and the CBC Law team.
