Representation before Turkmen courts and support in international arbitration, with strategy and budget agreed with the client at the outset.

Technology, IP & Data

Trademarks and IP, e-commerce, personal data and cyber law: the newer fields of Turkmen law, from first steps to full operation.

Why Hukukchy

We know how state agencies work

Permits, inspections, contracts and disputes with ministries, state enterprises and regulators are routine work for us, not an exception.

Your contract, in your language

We draft and negotiate in Turkmen, Russian, English and Turkish, so nothing is lost between versions.

The newer fields of law

Intellectual property, personal data, e-commerce and cyber law: areas where few firms in Turkmenistan advise.
