    The Justizstandort-Stärkungsgesetz (Legal Venue Strengthening Act) went into force on April 1st, 2025. According to the Act, the German states are empowered to establish commercial courts specializing in economic disputes at the level of the Higher Regional Court, as well as Commercial Chambers at the Regional Court level. Special procedural instruments, designed for the specific needs of business, apply. Baden-Württemberg has taken advantage of this opportunity to establish new courts.
