Anna McIntyre

Anna McIntyre is a Senior Associate in our Business Crime and Investigations team.

She brings extensive experience from both the private and public sectors in the investigation and prosecution of white collar and economic crime, as well as practising as a highly experienced corporate compliance advisor and criminal and civil litigator.

Anna joined us from the Serious Fraud Office where she led some of the most prominent investigations and prosecutions of serious economic crime in the UK, including the negotiation and conclusion of the Amec Foster Wheeler DPA and the Petrofac plea agreement, as well as the conviction of David Ames for the £226 million Harlequin fraud, for which she received a judicial commendation for her work as prosecutor.

She has extensive experience working alongside domestic and international authorities from the Financial Conduct Authority to the US Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission, and was a policy lead for the Serious Fraud Office on their approach to DPAs; training overseas authorities such as Canada and Malaysia, as well as the CPS.

Anna previously trained and qualified at Hogan Lovells, where she advised a number of FTSE 500 companies on their corporate compliance regimes, ensuring some of the UK’s top companies have bespoke compliance programmes in place for the whole suite of economic crime legislation; from anti-bribery and corruption to anti-money laundering obligations.

Anna brings a unique combination of litigation, investigation, and compliance experience to her role, acquired from both ‘sides of the table’. She brings varied and practical experience grown over the last ten years of her career to every client relationship; focusing on what really matters in what can often be an otherwise fraught and complex area of the law.

Anna’s exceptional experience and personable touch saw her recently recognised in the 2025 GIR 100 Women in Investigations – which recognises the top 100 global women in her field.
