What ALTROGGE+ does

ALTROGGE+ is a full-service law firm and notary practice (Rechtsanwälte und Notare) headquartered in Lüdenscheid, Germany, with a second office in Meinerzhagen opened in late 2022. The firm operates under the legal name Dr. Altrogge ⋅ Dominicus Rechtsanwälte PartmbB and is governed as a partnership with limited professional liability, owned by six equity partners. Founded in 1920, it serves individuals and businesses across the Sauerland region of South Westphalia, with 9 attorneys holding 12 specialist certifications (Fachanwaltschaften) across 12 legal areas — the highest concentration claimed in the Märkischer Kreis district. Service offerings span roughly 20 practice areas including insurance, IT, inheritance, labour, banking, copyright, insolvency, family, construction, trademark, commercial, administrative, traffic, medical, travel, data protection, and rental law, complemented by notary services and mediation.

The firm's core product is legal advice and representation, with notary services (property contracts, corporate formations, wills, powers of attorney) and mediation (family and business) as adjacent offerings. No proprietary technology platform is described; business operations rely on standard office workflows plus an external digital insolvency case management platform used for creditor/debtor proceedings. The business model is professional services billing — attorney fees are governed by the statutory Rechtsanwaltsvergütungsgesetz (RVG) and notary fees by the GNotKG/KostO — yielding a mix of one-off case work and recurring advisory mandates.
