Mesut Yilmaz

Mr. Yilmaz (63 years old, single) is a retiree and works part-time in a warehouse.

Recognizing Legal Issues

Mr. Yilmaz has received a notice of termination from his employer. He does not agree with the termination and wants to take legal action against it.

Lack of Financial Resources

Due to his low pension and the limited income from his part-time job, Mr. Yilmaz cannot bear the high costs of a lawyer and court fees.

Legal Expenses Insurance

To overcome the financial barriers, Mr. Yilmaz initially attempts to use his legal expenses insurance. However, the insurance company rejects the case because Mr. Yilmaz took out the insurance only after receiving the notice of termination.

Legal Aid for Court Proceeding

Since Mr. Yilmaz meets the requirements for legal aid, a lawyer takes over his representation in court. The lawyer completes the application for legal aid for Mr. Yilmaz, as it is very complicated and requires legal expertise.

The lawyer will continue to provide legal advice, represent his interests in court, and prepare the necessary applications and documents.

Court Proceeding
