Principles of Civil Liability for Unlawful Acts
The Turkish Code of Obligations provides comprehensive mechanisms to claim damages resulting from unlawful acts (Haksız Fiil).
1. Pecuniary Damages (Maddi Tazminat)
Restitution covers actual financial losses, medical expenses, property repair costs, and prospective loss of profits.
2. Non-Pecuniary Damages (Manevi Tazminat)
Financial compensation awarded to relieve severe emotional pain, mental anguish, or bodily injury suffered by the victim.
