Where law meets code.
Licensed attorney and full-stack software architect with 20+ years of experience building systems at the intersection of legal practice and technology.
Önder Yıldırım practices law at Yıldırım & Yurdaöl Law Office in Istanbul and builds software, including the legal AI platform Bluetree.
Engage when the problem sits at the intersection of law, software architecture, and operational complexity — not when you need a generic developer or a traditional attorney alone.
I'm not just a developer who happens to know law — nor a lawyer who dabbles in code.
I'm Önder Yıldırım — a licensed attorney registered with the Istanbul Bar Association, practicing at Yıldırım & Yurdaöl Law Office. My legal practice spans commercial law, intellectual property, international transport & logistics, labor law, enforcement & bankruptcy, family law and corporate legal advisory for domestic and international clients.
Parallel to my legal career, I graduated with honors from the Software Department at Istanbul University. Over more than a decade, I progressed from Software Engineer to Architect Software Engineer, designing cryptocurrency systems, blockchain infrastructure, real-time trading platforms and secure integrations.
Today I combine both worlds: building Bluetree (formerly LawToolsAI), a multi-tenant legal AI platform with RAG pipelines, LangGraph agents and MCP protocol integration. I speak English and French fluently, and bring a rare dual perspective that most legal-tech teams can only dream of assembling.
