Law Clerk

Toma, Angelina

Profile & Practice Areas

Angelina Toma serves as a part-time law clerk at Kotz Sangster while she continues her studies at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law. Based in the firm’s Detroit office and splitting her time with the Bloomfield Hills office, Angelina currently supports attorneys on commercial litigation matters. Looking ahead, she is interested in business, real estate, bankruptcy and health care law.

At the firm, Angelina assists attorneys with research and drafting on commercial litigation matters, building a practical understanding of how disputes are analyzed and resolved. She is drawn to the problem-solving side of the law and values working alongside attorneys who challenge her to grow, welcoming every opportunity to step outside her comfort zone and sharpen her skills.

Before joining Kotz Sangster, Angelina worked as a legal assistant at a bankruptcy law firm and served as a judicial intern at the 35th District Court. Together, these experiences gave her two very different perspectives on the legal field, from the practical demands of client-focused bankruptcy work to the inner workings of the courtroom.

A West Bloomfield native of Iraqi heritage, Angelina enjoys trying new restaurants with friends in her free time.
