These people (as will many lawyers, outsourced or not) will go out of their way to ruin the image of your company and brand in the eyes of customers, even when there is absolutely nothing to be gained.
It just doesn't look great when a devoted fanbase starts getting takedown notices and legal threats over memes, supplementary content, etc.
A legal department with agency is not a good idea. There should be very specific instructions as to what they can initiate on their own.

I remember that being a real problem, but as I learned when I left the Adobe ecosystem last year, there's now a healthy ecosystem of competitive creative tools from ISVs like Affinity, Gravit, Figma, Procreate, Blackmagic Design, etc. The irony is that Adobe helped jump-start this ecosystem when they went subscription-only.
