With the establishment of the Commercial Court at the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Commercial Chambers at the Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main, the State of Hesse has significantly enhanced its judicial framework for the resolution of commercial disputes. Since 1st of July 2025, these specialised divisions have strengthened the nationally and internationally oriented legal infrastructure of Frankfurt, marking another important milestone in reinforcing Hesse’s role as a premier legal and business hub.
Now that the Commercial Court and Commercial Chambers have successfully commenced their judicial activities, we are pleased to announce the official opening of their dedicated premises—modern courtrooms and facilities tailored to the specific requirements of complex commercial litigation, designed to ensure efficient and timely proceedings.
We are delighted to invite you to celebrate this special occasion with us.

Venue: BeOne, Bleichstraße 1, 60313 Frankfurt am Main
