When businesses face commercial litigation, choosing the proper legal counsel directly impacts the outcome. An independent international ranking has recognised two Sayenko Kharenko lawyers for their work in this field: Partner Olexander Droug as “Recommended” and Partner Oleksiy Koltok as a “Future Leader” in the Lexology Index: Commercial Litigation 2025.
Lexology Index doesn’t rely on self-promotion. Its research team analysed over 24,000 data points and gathered direct feedback from corporate counsel and clients who’ve actually worked with the lawyers being evaluated. The process included 325+ interviews, submissions from 550+ law firms worldwide, and feedback from 700+ corporations. Only 30% of those considered were ultimately selected—making this a meaningful indicator of real client satisfaction.
Olexander Droug’s recognition reflects his expertise in international arbitration and cross-border commercial litigation across multiple jurisdictions. Oleksiy Koltok’s “Future Leader” designation acknowledges his two decades of experience defending clients in complex disputes across all sectors of Ukraine’s economy.
At Sayenko Kharenko, we view litigation as a tool to achieve business objectives, not an end in itself. We start by understanding your commercial goals, then develop legal strategies that advance them. Some disputes require firm courtroom advocacy; others benefit from strategic negotiation. What remains consistent is our focus on protecting your interests and achieving practical outcomes.
We handle contract disputes, shareholder conflicts, cross-border enforcement matters, and other business-critical issues across multiple industries and jurisdictions.
