Metz office — 6 rue Coislin
Maître Hélène Tared's main office, opened in 2020 in the heart of Metz, a few minutes' walk from the Palais de justice and the railway station. Local roots in the Moselle, permanent openness across the border with the Grand Duchy.
A Metz-based firm, designed for the Moselle and beyond
The Metz office is Maître Hélène Tared's primary practice. Located at 6 rue Coislin, just a short walk from the historic centre, the Palais de justice and the Metz railway station, the firm welcomes clients in a calm, confidential setting suited to careful conversations.
Admitted to the Metz Bar after taking the oath in 2020, Maître Tared was elected Secretary of the Metz Bar Conference in 2024 — an elective distinction acknowledging a recognised expertise and a sustained involvement in the life of the Order. The firm appears before the Metz Judicial Court and on appeal before the Metz Court of Appeal.
The dual admission to the Luxembourg Bar moreover allows Franco-Luxembourgish cross-border cases — frequent for a Metz clientele partly made up of cross-border workers commuting to the Grand Duchy — to be handled without changing counsel.
