Legal Consultancy

IMECO Global Inc., with its long-term experience with global commerce, and lawyers who have experience in fields regarding starting businesses in USA and Turkey, and visa and immigration processes, has a professional team that will provide the right solutions for any legal problems you will face in USA and Turkey, and will provide legal consultancy from the start regarding legal issues in entering the market.

IMECO Global Inc.’s legal consultancy services are grouped into four categories.

1) Forming the Company

An alternative method in entering an international market that allows for direct action is forming a company. After completing the pre-work and market research, if you decide to become a part of the market, the most important decision to be made is picking a company familiar with the region’s rules and laws that can carry out legal procedures and applications.
In forming a company in USA and Turkey, the most important point is the type of company that will be formed. In solving potential legal problems, the type of the company can change according to the legal procedures. When forming a company in USA, it is necessary to obtain Activity License, Employer Identity Number, Tax Number, Brand and Patent registration. Similar rules also apply to forming a company in Turkey.

Forming a partnership with a company that is already functioning in the target market will help in completing these procedures easily.

IMECO Global Inc. provides information and experience for every step in forming a company, consultancy through its legal team, and the partnership option for completing the company forming procedure easier.

2) Office Space Arrangements

For entering the market quickly, it is important to create an office that can act as a center for company’s forming procedures as well as for creating a warehouse when necessary.

In creating an office, you need to rent the place, obtain the necessary permissions, sign agreements for communication services such as telephone, fax and internet, decorating the office, and obtaining help for making the company active.

IMECO Global Inc. aims to be your biggest supporter during your work for creating an office and pledge to complete the creation in a low-costing manner.

3) Product and Brand Registration

In addition to creating a company and an office, another important subject is registering the product and the brand in the market.

The federal administration, commercial associations, scientific associations, technical organizations and the National Justice Institution determine the USA standards. The most important of these is the American National Standards Institution that has been active by not creating standards but functions in establishing agreements with the member corporations that establish the standards since 1918. Currently, there are approximately 100,000 American standards that are actively used. A subject that closely interests the Turkish food producers is the safety measures than by USA after September 11, 2001 and the Bioterrorism, Public Health and the Law that was established in 2003 and the mandatory registration prior to export established by the FDA for companies that are exporting food into the USA.

Turkey is currently in the process of entering the European Union and a majority of the standards established by the European Union are being applied in the Turkish market.

In both the Turkish and the US markets, product and brand registration are important subjects and any little mistake made can result in the product not appearing in the market or being unsuccessful.

IMECO Global Inc. is the right choice for seeking help in registering your product and commercial brand according to the standards and rules of your target market.

4) Visa and Immigration

It is necessary to obtain a visa for Turkish citizens who want to form companies in USA or for American businessmen who want to form companies in Turkey especially for residing or working in these countries, or even for visiting these countries for commercial purposes.
Due to the increased amount of security enforced after September 11, USA visa procedures have gotten to be more difficult and the number of visas given has been reduced. There are a lot of businessmen that have been affected by this situation. Turkish businessmen who want to attend expositions, meeting and create connections haven’t been able to receive visas, thus haven’t been able to pursue their travels. There are even Turkish businessmen who have paid the exposition fees and sent their products, but still haven’t been able to obtain a visa, thus haven’t traveled to USA.

However, American businessmen, who want to travel to Turkey, haven’t had a problem with obtaining visas.

IMECO Global Inc. that works with American and Turkish immigration lawyers can provide legal consultancy for visa and immigration processes..

While the prices for services from IMECO Global Inc. vary according to the services provided, legal consultancy services aren’t limited to the subjects described above, but also include other services that vary according to each company’s needs.
