Kanzlei Dr. Schenk

What Kanzlei Dr. Schenk does

Kanzlei Dr. Schenk is a privately held German boutique law firm headquartered in Bremen (Buchtstraße 13, 28195 Bremen) with a secondary office in Neuss, operating under the legal name "Kanzlei Dr. Schenk." The firm is staffed by nine employees, including four lawyers — Dr. Stephan Schenk (Fachanwalt für gewerblichen Rechtsschutz), Agnieszka Schenk, Agata Klatt, and Anna Hanschen (Fachanwältin für Medien und Urheberrecht) — and is registered with the Hanseatische Rechtsanwaltskammer Bremen. It serves businesses and organizations across Germany and Europe, with explicit specialization in IT law, e-commerce law, trademark and competition law, copyright and media law, data protection (DSGVO/GDPR), employment law, insurance law, AI law, and online reputation management. The firm publicly claims experience from more than 7,000 cease-and-desist proceedings, positioning high-volume Abmahnung defense as a core competency.

The firm's service portfolio is delivered through individual practice-area engagements rather than a unified software product. Core offerings include cease-and-desist defense, trademark registration with DPMA/EUIPO, e-commerce legal text drafting, GDPR compliance and external data protection officer services, negative review removal, contract drafting, and AI law advisory. Underlying technology is limited to a standard WordPress web presence supported by Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and Google Ads for paid search; the firm offers no API, SDK, or developer-facing integrations.

Revenue is generated through professional-services billing across hourly fees, fair fixed prices (faire Pauschalpreise), and case-based pricing, with a free initial telephone consultation used to qualify prospects. Client acquisition combines website inquiries, Google Ads, social media presence, content marketing via case-article publications, and professional referrals. Distribution is direct through the two physical offices plus nationwide and Europe-wide representation. Ownership is concentrated with the founding attorney and family members; no venture capital, private equity, or institutional investment is indicated in the data.
