Career

Anu Mohindru QC has a strong practice specialising in all areas of financial crime. He has defended in substantial cases involving money laundering, VAT fraud, bank frauds, floatation frauds, tax frauds and VAT tribunal appeals. He also deals with professional discipline cases.

His early elevation to silk shows how he has been recognised by professional clients, lay clients, Judges and his peers as a barrister who can skilfully deal with the most difficult of cases. His ability to assimilate vast amounts of information and break it down and quickly pinpoint the real issues and then present them in a clear concise manner is brilliant.

Anu also handles general criminal cases, having acted for defendants indicted on terrorist charges, murder and people smuggling. He has also been instructed on a number of high-profile cases including the Tilbury Docks people smuggling and the Ben Stokes case, both for the criminal charges and the disciplinary tribunal. This case attracted extensive media coverage.

He has a hard-working nature and an eye for detail. He is a skilled advocate, with a strong courtroom presence. He works well with both professional and lay clients, using his engaging manner to great effect.

Anu has a medical background, which gives him an advantage when acting for clients in criminal cases in which medical experts are involved, including Murder trials and acting in the M25 serial rape trial. His sporting background enables him to have an insight into the clients and professional bodies thinking when dealing with sports disciplinary cases. He is a qualified Arbitrator and Mediator and is fluent in Punjabi, Hindi and Urdu. He is a keen sportsman; cricket being his main sport, which he played professionally in his earlier years. Not only does he play for the Bar team but has turned out for the famous Lashings World XI and the MCC.
