About Us

Sanjiv Vaswani

Prosecutor turned Defence Lawyer

Following in the tradition of Barrister's Chambers of the UK, Vaswani Law Chambers is helmed by a sole practitioner, Sanjiv Vaswani.


A former Deputy Public Prosecutor with the Attorney-General's Chambers, Singapore (AGC), Sanjiv carries with him more than a decade's worth of experience in Criminal Litigation, having prosecuted hundreds of criminal cases, many of which during his time with what was then known as the Financial and Technology Crime Division.


Rising through the ranks, Sanjiv was appointed Deputy Senior State Counsel, and in addition to being honoured with a Long Service Award, was also bestowed the Commendation Medal (Pingat Kepujian) by the President during the National Day Awards in 2018. 


Known as a tenacious litigator, an example of Sanjiv's courtcraft is captured in the Heritage Gallery of the State Courts, where an excerpt of one of his famous cross-examinations of a witness is played by a younger (and arguably more handsome) actor on a continuous video loop.


With his years of experience as a prosecutor, Sanjiv brings a wealth of translatable litigation prowess in defending any nature of criminal and regulatory offences.
