Cyber‑crime cases often involve complex technical evidence, digital footprints and expert testimony. Ananya Mishra regularly assists clients whose accounts have been hacked, whose online communications are misinterpreted, or who face allegations under the Information Technology Act. The lawyer conducts a forensic review of devices, obtains expert analysis of logs and challenges the admissibility of electronic evidence.

The POCSO defence requires sensitivity and a nuanced understanding of both criminal law and child protection statutes. Ananya Mishra can help by scrutinising the investigation process, verifying the chain of custody of evidence, and ensuring that any statements from minors were obtained without coercion. The lawyer prepares comprehensive defence submissions that highlight inconsistencies, lack of corroboration and possible procedural lapses. In many cases, the advocate secures dismissal of charges or obtains a reduction in the severity of the offence through skillful negotiation and rigorous courtroom advocacy.

The lawyer holds a Bachelor of Laws from Panjab University, a Master of Laws in Cyber‑Law from the National Law School of India University, and a certification in digital forensics.
