140 years of tradition. Our responsibility. Our motivation.

KLAKA is bearing on a tradition of legal advice that goes right back to the nineteenth century. In 1879, the two counsellors of justice Dr. Max Rauchenberger and Dr. Christoph Schramm founded a law firm specialised in the protection of intellectual property rights in Munich. In 1951 Rainer Klaka entered the law firm, then into the second generation and managed by Dr. Carl Schramm, and in 1959 became a partner. In 1979 Rainer Klaka founded the law firm KLAKA in Munich.

KLAKA builds on this tradition of providing advice in intellectual property law, particularly in trademark, patent, design, and competition law, which has grown over more than 140 years.

This tradition is a responsibility and challenge for us to further develop our law firm. Rainer Klaka has always been forward thinking. He anticipated legal developments for his clients in the field of intellectual property law and offered appropriate counselling and advice. This aim today is still an integral part of our identity as modern commercial lawyers.

Since April 2015, the law firm has been operating as a partnership under the legal form of a partnership limited by joint liability (Partnerschaftsgesellschaft mbB).
