Tips

• Keep the DE proxy (default) to avoid rate-limits
• fetchDetails: true increases run time ~3x but enriches with email/website/bio
• Practice area slugs are German (familienrecht, not family-law)
• For nationwide search, leave city empty
• Schedule weekly runs from Apify Console for fresh market data
• Combine with jameda-scraper if you also need medical professionals

FAQ

Q: How does the actor bypass anwalt.de's bot detection?
A: It uses curl-cffi with Chrome 120 TLS impersonation + session warm-up + smart retry-with-rewarmup on 403s. No headless browser needed.

Q: How accurate is the Fachanwalt detection?
A: 100% — the actor reads the official Fachanwalt designation directly from each profile.

Q: Can I get email addresses?
A: Yes — set fetchDetails: true. Emails come from publicly listed contact info on each lawyer's profile.

Q: How recent are the listings?
A: Real-time. Every run fetches live from anwalt.de.

Q: Are reviews scraped too?
A: Only the latest review excerpt + count + average rating. Full review text is not scraped to respect both anwalt.de's ToS and reviewer privacy.
