Narita Bahra KC continues to secure outstanding outcomes for high-net-worth and professional clients facing the most complex and publicly sensitive criminal allegations. Her recent successes demonstrate why leading solicitors instruct her when reputation, career, and liberty are at stake.

She often delivers exceptional results in high stakes financial crime and serious crime defence. Solicitors instruct Narita to lead multi-disciplinary teams through uncharted legal territory, whether it be emerging digital asset regulations, novel applications of legislation, or untested legal arguments before senior judiciary.

For high-net-worth and professional clients, adverse publicity can be as devastating as a conviction. Narita has demonstrated exceptional skill in navigating cases where media attention and reputational damage pose existential threats to her clients' careers and personal lives while the legal defence unfolds.

Recent cases include:

Instructed to represent a principal defendant in the UK prosecution of the largest ever international cryptocurrency seizure, currently valued in excess of £5 billion. This unprecedented case has attracted significant international attention and concerns an extensive international investment fraud in which multiple jurisdictions, including authorities in China and the United Kingdom, have asserted competing claims to the seized assets.

Recently secured an acquittal after a decade of proceedings in a complex Pension Fraud case. Narita's tenacity and strategic acumen delivered justice for a client who had waited ten years for vindication.

Secured a suspended sentence and preserved employment for a professional HNW client facing charges of Fraud by Abuse of Position and Theft from an Employer—an outcome that protected not only liberty but also livelihood and professional standing

Secured a not guilty verdict and therefore, a timely end to regulatory proceedings, for a professional client charged with sexual offence allegations. This was a case where acquittal meant the difference between career destruction and vindication.

In a recent high-profile case involving the first transgender Member of Parliament charged with stalking, Narita deployed her deep understanding of stalking legislation to make successful legal submissions that an incorrect charge had been laid. The Prosecution conceded and offered no evidence on the stalking charge.

Leading silk for Financial Crime and Crime in both Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners "Narita is one of the finest silks at the modern criminal Bar. Simply elite."

Her practice extends to high-stakes corporate and international disputes, including bribery, corruption, anti-competitive conduct, commercial fraud, fraudulent trading, and asset freezing orders, offering solicitors and corporate clients comprehensive expertise across multiple jurisdictions.
