Prerna is an angel.
Prerna helped somebody who is very close to me find a path to naturalization in a situation that was very bleak (let's call the person "Tom" for confidentiality purposes). Prerna came up with a solution to this immigration predicament that Tom did not even know was available to him - Prerna knew of a visa he was entitled to because she truly listened to his story and picked up on a nuance. Prerna is smart, experienced and dedicated, but what sets her apart is her dedication to her clients. The emails she would write Tom were so uplifting, supportive and warm - it truly made Tom feel cared about and looked after, which was a feeling he was entirely unfamiliar with. Prerna encouraged Tom in his educational endeavors, she was a mentor to him in every sense.
Tom is now a proud permanent resident and after the waiting period following receipt of the Green Card elapses, he will be able to apply for citizenship in the only Country he has ever called home.
Tom actually reached out to Prerna for advice with respect to another legal issue, which was not even immigration-related. Prerna gave him referrals and connected him with multiple people who she asked to help him. Lawyers bill for their time by the hour, but Prerna never missed a call from Tom who was not even an active client of hers at that point and spent so much time trying to help him. But none of this was any surprise, because I had seen clips on the news of Prerna waiting at the airport for her client, Luis Mora, who had been detained by ICE in San Deigo in 2018 (Google it). She has a heart of Gold.
I am a natural-born citizen, but I have had the pleasure of knowing many immigrants who have unfortunately struggled with the immigration process. I also studied Immigration Law in school. I KNOW how hard this process is and I cannot recommend Prerna highly enough.
When Tom talks about Prerna, he gets misty-eyed, and so do I.

Prerna is an awesome lawyer, she helped me a lot back when I was a student at Berkeley. She’s always willing to answer my immigration related questions no matter how stupid they may seem. Thank you for everything you do Prerna!

Prerna has helped me with various important matters over the past two years. They are committed to their work and to their clients, and fights tirelessly for a just result for their clients. Because of this, I consider them to be a trustworthy person and attorney, and I don't see myself having anyone else be my attorney. They have my highest recommendation.

I became a client of Prerna when she was still working at East Bay Community Law Clinic. I got screwed over by my past employer and was a victim of H1B visa fraud. As the result, I spiraled from a non-immigrant visa to undocumented in a blink of an eye. I went to so many clinics and asked so many lawyers, but no one seemed to be able to help. Luckily, I happened to meet Prerna for consultation by chance. She was very patience and emphatic to my situation. She went above and beyond and agree to help me to get justice. She laid out my options that I might qualify for and explained in detail the pros and cons. Not only did she always make time for me when I needed, she was also willing to answer any question I had. My visa was approved and I got back into legal status thanks to her. I am now on a pathway to citizenship! Her knowledge of immigration law is significantly superb compared to others. And she cares deeply for her clients who are the minority and may not always have the resources. She helps us navigate a complicated system and helped us achieve a better future in the legal way. I would recommend anyone to seek her legal service. She reached out and solved my problems when no one else could. I am forever graceful and in her debt.
