🔈 "Energoatom" hired a legal advisor for the supervisory board for 30,8 million UAH. No tender was held for this; the lawyer was chosen without using the electronic system. The contract was signed with JSC "Sayenko Kharenko" 1 July 2026. This is a framework agreement with hourly payment based on time & materials, not a fixed monthly retainer fee.

The maximum cost is 30,8 million UAH. At the same time, the cost of Sayenko Kharenko’s services depends on which specialist assists the supervisory board. For example, if a partner of the firm (specifically Volodymyr Sayenko or Mykhailo Kharenko) gives advice to the supervisory board, each hour of their work will cost 16,8 thousand UAH (with VAT – 20 160 UAH). This is the highest service rate in materials on providing legal services for state institutions and companies.

The estimated number of hours according to the contract is 2 760. Of those, only 302 hours are partners’ work. The average hourly cost without regard to the lawyer’s position is 11 161,7 UAH with VAT.

"Sayenko Kharenko" is a well-known law firm with high fees. In August, following a ruling by the Commercial Cassation Court within the Supreme Court, it became known that the lawyers received 110 thousand euros from LEGO Holding A/S for their services. For that money, Sayenko Kharenko fought against pirates who were illegally selling the corporation’s toys.

Sayenko Kharenko identified three individual entrepreneurs and LLC "TG "Union Group" that were illegally selling toys. LEGO Holding A/S wanted the defendants to reimburse the cost of the legal services provided. However, the court calculated that in fact Sayenko Kharenko provided legal assistance in this case not for 110 thousand euros, but only for 1 thousand euros (equivalent to 52,2 thousand UAH).

In the first two quarters of 2026, JSC "Sayenko Kharenko", according to Opendatabot data, earned 176,3 million UAH. In addition to Energoatom, their services were also used by the Operator of the Gas Transmission System of Ukraine (for 1,1 million UAH).

🔈 "Енергоатом" найняв юридичного радника для наглядової ради за 30,8 млн грн. Тендер для цього не проводили, юриста обрали без використання електронної системи. Договір підписали з АО "Саєнко Харенко" 1 липня 2026-го. Це рамкова угода з погодинною оплатою за фактом (time & materials), а не фіксована щомісячна абонентська плата (retainer fee).

Максимальна вартість – 30,8 млн грн. При цьому вартість послуг "Саєнко Харенко" залежить від того, який саме спеціаліст допомагає наглядовій раді. Наприклад, якщо партнер компанії (зокрема Володимир Саєнко або ж Михайло Харенко) щось порадить наглядовій раді, то за кожну годину його роботи доведеться платити по 16,8 тис. грн (з ПДВ – 20 160 грн). Це найвища вартість послуг  в матеріалах про надання юридичних послуг для державних установ та компаній.

Орієнтовна кількість годин згідно з договором – 2 760. З них лише 302 години – роботи партнерів. Середня вартість години без урахування посади юриста становить 11 161,7 грн з ПДВ.

"Саєнко Харенко" – відома адвокатська компанія з високим цінником. У серпні завдяки ухвалі Касаційного господарського суду у складі Верховного Суду стало відомо, що адвокати отримали від LEGO Holding A/S 110 тис. євро за свої послуги. За ці гроші "Саєнко Харенко" боролися з піратами, які незаконно продавали іграшки корпорації.

"Саєнко Харенко" виявили трьох ФОПів та ТОВ "ТГ "Юніон Груп", які незаконно продавали іграшки. У LEGO Holding A/S хотіли, щоб відповідачі компенсували вартість наданих юридичних послуг. Однак суд розрахував, що насправді "Саєнко Харенко" у цій справі надали правничу допомогу не на 110 тис. євро, а всього на 1 тис. євро (еквівалент 52,2 тис. грн).

За два квартали 2026-го АО "Саєнко Харенко", згідно з даними Opendatabot, заробило 176,3 млн грн. Крім "Енергоатому", їхніми послугами також користувався "Оператор газотранспортної системи України" (на 1,1 млн грн).
