SAYENKO KHARENKO is the firm of choice for any competition law services in Ukraine. Working closely with our M&A practice group, our antitrust lawyers advise and represent clients in a wide range of Ukrainian competition law matters, including:
- all aspects of M&A analysis and filing
- formation and operation of joint ventures and other business transactions
- antitrust investigations and proceedings, including related to unfair competition, concerted actions and abuse of dominant position
- antitrust litigation
The firm regularly acts as a local counsel for major cross-border transactions requiring merger filings in Ukraine. The lawyers of the firm have been involved in obtaining numerous approvals from the Ukrainian Antimonopoly Committee, some of which required special handling due to the increased risk of disclosure of confidential information or the need to obtain clearance within the shortest possible period of time.
The firm has also successfully handled a number of investigations by Ukrainian competition authorities, including the largest claim in Ukrainian history against a major US Fortune 500 company accused of abusing dominant market position. |
