The lawyer graduated from a distinguished law school and completed a master’s programme focusing on white‑collar crime and child protection law.

In fraud and cheating cases, Irfan Gowda begins by scrutinising the financial records, transaction histories, and correspondence that form the prosecution’s case. The lawyer engages forensic accountants and IT experts to uncover inconsistencies, identify procedural errors, and locate exculpatory evidence. By filing detailed applications for forensic inspection and challenging the admissibility of improperly obtained documents, the lawyer strives to dismantle the prosecution’s narrative. Irfan Gowda regularly assists clients in seeking bail, negotiating settlements, and, where evidence is insufficient, achieving complete dismissals.
