Sayenko Kharenko's ‘leading competition law team’ is regularly called upon by both domestic and international players to advise on merger clearance and filings related to significant transactions. The practice represents multinational clients in competition investigations, as well as unfair competition and anti-competitive concerted practices cases. Vladimir Sayenko demonstrates prowess in merger control, concerted practices, abuse of dominance and unfair competition. He leads the team alongside Maksym Nazarenko, who handles antitrust aspects of domestic and multinational M&A and JVs, and ’stand-out practitioner’ Valentyna Hvozd, who represents clients in investigations related to competition law violations. Oleksandr Nagorny advises on cartels and anticompetitive practices and unfair competition, while Julia Kuyda's broad sector expertise sees her active in obtaining clearance in various transactions. Igor Pomaz is another name to note.
