Anda Totoreanu

Anda Totoreanu is a first-generation immigrant and immigration attorney dedicated to providing compassionate, thorough, and strategic representation to individuals and families navigating the U.S. immigration system. She works across business, family-based, and humanitarian immigration matters, as well as removal defense, appellate advocacy, and complex legal research and writing.

Before joining Hemrick O’Malley PLLC, Anda practiced at boutique and mid-sized immigration firms, preparing a wide range of employment-based petitions including O-1, P-1, and EB-1 filings. She also has experience with adjustment of status applications, family-based petitions, waivers, and responses to Requests for Evidence. Her practice spans clients in diverse industries such as the arts, esports, film, journalism, science, and executive leadership, as well as small business owners and multinational professionals.

Anda’s dedication to immigration advocacy began during her time at the Kathryn O. Greenberg Immigration Justice Clinic at the Cardozo School of Law, where she worked on complex matters involving criminal-immigration intersections, prosecutorial discretion, and motions practice before the Immigration Court. Her team received the clinic’s “Outstanding Team Award” after successfully helping a client vacate decades-old criminal arrests, reopen and terminate his removal order, and ultimately regain his lawful permanent residence after nearly twenty years outside the United States.

In addition to her litigation and humanitarian experience, Anda is a strong legal writer and researcher, with published scholarship in the Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice and prior academic work addressing international conflict and civil society. She is committed to advancing human rights, equity, and dignity for immigrant communities.

Fluent in English, French, and Romanian, Anda brings a cross-cultural and client-centered perspective to her practice. Whether advocating for an artist of extraordinary ability, preparing a family for an adjustment interview, or assisting a vulnerable client seeking protection, Anda’s focus remains on delivering thoughtful, high-quality representation grounded in empathy and integrity.
