Administrative Law

Administrative law is a branch of law that regulates the relations of the state and public institutions with citizens while performing public services. This field covers the legal regulations regarding the activities of public administration and determines the limits of the administrative power of the state. Administrative law determines the rules and principles that administrative bodies that use public power must comply with while performing public services. This branch of law aims to provide a balance between the decisions and actions of public institutions and the protection of citizens’ rights.

Administrative law covers a wide range of areas such as administrative procedures, administrative jurisdiction, public services, and relations between public institutions and citizens.
