Rethinking the Judiciary?!

Is there a Need for a Commercial Court in Germany?

"This has been the title of the 7th Symposium ‚Law – Made in Germany‘ on 6 November 2019 at the Chamber of Commerce in Frankfurt. Plenty of participants discussed intensively whether Germany needs a Commercial Court which other countries already have established or are about to establish.
