Burcu Yildiz

Burcu Yildiz is the founding attorney of ByLaw. She graduated with distinction from TOBB University of Economics and Technology with a double major in Law and International Relations. Her success in court began before she was licensed. During her legal internship in Türkiye, she secured favorable rulings, building on courtroom experience she had gained as a law student.

As a licensed attorney in Türkiye, she handled a broad range of disputes. She then continued her studies in the United States on scholarship, earning an M.A. in Political Science from Eastern Illinois University and an LL.M. from Texas A&M University.

In the United States, she has handled numerous immigrant and nonimmigrant cases, appearing before many immigration courts, and numerous contested civil cases, including cross-border matters between the United States and Türkiye. At Texas law firms, she also worked across numerous personal-injury cases, creditor-side debt collection for major banks, and construction law and complex commercial disputes. Her work goes beyond advice: she has appeared in court, taken part in mediations, initiated arbitration proceedings, and been involved in jury trials.

Burcu is licensed in Texas, Maryland, and Türkiye. She brings federal and state litigation experience, international training, and a cross-cultural perspective to practical, strategic representation, and serves clients in English or Turkish.
