Hocker und Partner

What Hocker und Partner does

Höcker und Partner is a long-established German law firm partnership (Partnerschaftsgesellschaft) headquartered at Marie-Curie-Straße 1 in Osnabrück, operating continuously under the same name since approximately 1940 (over 80 years). The firm delivers legal advisory across 14 practice areas — labor law, civil and contract law, banking and capital markets law, civil servant law, inheritance law, family law, real estate law, commercial and corporate law, insolvency law, tenancy and condominium law, traffic law, administrative law, competition law, and commercial law — alongside notarial services (real estate transfers, company formations, inheritance contracts, certifications, advance directives) and integrated business consulting (strategy, M&A, succession, restructuring, data protection, digitization).

The firm is staffed by three named partner attorneys — Maike Soggiu-Hensiek (Fachanwältin für Miet- und Wohnungseigentumsrecht and Notarin), Dr. Christoph Fleddermann (Fachanwalt für Arbeitsrecht), and Thomas Kreutzfeld (Fachanwalt für Verwaltungsrecht) — plus notary support staff, placing the firm in the 11–50 employee band overall. Services are billed under the German Lawyers' Fees Act (Rechtsanwaltsvergütungsgesetz, RVG) for legal work and the Gerichts- und Notarkostengesetz (GNotKG) for notarial acts, both statutory fee schedules. The firm additionally bills directly through all major German legal insurance providers (ARAG, Allianz, AXA, DEVK, ERGO, Generali, Gothaer, HDI, Advocard, and 20+ others) for insured clients.

The go-to-market model is traditional sales-led: clients reach the firm via the hoecker-partner.de website, phone (0541/335170), email, or a contact form. The target segments are horizontally distributed — small and medium-sized enterprises (Mittelstand), family businesses, private individuals, associations, and municipalities — all within the Osnabrück and Landkreis Osnabrück regional catchment. There is no proprietary technology, no API, no mobile app, and no AI/ML capability disclosed; the firm operates as a classic regional professional services partnership.
