Meet Anna Oguntimein
Fighting for Your Legal Rights with Integrity and Honesty
Introducing Anna Oguntimein
Anna is a New York licensed attorney who was inspired to pursue law while working as a schoolteacher educating immigrant students. Being an immigrant herself, she understood the difficulties they faced and wanted to broaden her advocacy for them beyond the classroom walls.
Anna began her legal career in New York City representing children, survivors of domestic violence and victims of crime seeking humanitarian relief before United States Citizenship and Immigration Services and the Immigration Court. She also has extensive experience representing detained immigrants in removal proceedings and bond hearings. She is well-versed in criminal immigration issues and has advised criminal defense attorneys on negotiating plea deals to mitigate the immigration consequences in their clients’ cases. Anna’s most rewarding work, however, has been successfully defending HIV positive clients in removal proceedings so they could remain in the U.S. and have access to life saving medication.
Anna has a keen interest in the intersection of immigrant and employee rights. She has joined KENT | PINCIN to spearhead the immigration practice and handle pre-litigation matters at the firm. Anna strives to provide compassionate advocacy because she believes it empowers clients to exercise their rights and assert agency in their own lives.
When Anna isn’t practicing law, she enjoys spending time with her family, doing arts and crafts with her kids, and taking long walks on the beach.
