How is it calculated?

Produced from sentence execution calculations made by lawyers on the portal. Trial calculations are not counted; if several calculations were made for the same case, only the last one is used. Sentence findings come from cases of the last 36 months.

No names, case numbers or personal details are kept; no group smaller than 30 cases is shown. The index is recalculated at the start of every month. Details: Türkiye Index and the index's How is it calculated? page.

Türkiye Index is a statistic produced from calculations entered by portal users; it is not legal advice, a precedent or a commitment to any compensation amount. The assessment of the case belongs to the user.
