I am new to Discourse and trying to understand the details and extent of anonymous posting functionality.

Is it possible to restrict posts to anonymous by category? We are looking to implement an “Ask an Expert” feature whereby users can ask licensed attorneys legal questions. Due to the sensitive nature of some of these questions we would like for all of these posts / questions to remain anonymous. We would like for any user (independent of trust level) asking these types of “ask an expert” questions to show up as anonymous (either by default or altogether). Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
