Mrs. Garasia has traveled out of state to handle complex immigration matters at numerous USCIS field offices, including locations in New York City; Philadelphia, PA; Hartford, CT; Miami, FL; Fairfax, VA; Lawrence, MA; Cincinnati, OH; Memphis, TN; Jacksonville, FL; Centennial, CO; Chicago, IL; St. Albans City, VT; Sacramento, CA; and Houston, TX.

Mrs. Garasia’s legal successes are matched by her dedication to professional service and leadership.  She remains actively engaged in the legal community. She currently serves as the Chair Liaison between the USCIS Cranbury Field Office and the New Jersey Chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). Previously, she served as Chair of AILA’s New Jersey Chapter and was a member of AILA National’s By-Laws Committee.

In addition to her work with AILA, Mrs. Garasia serves on the Executive Board of the New Jersey State Bar Association (NJSBA)-Immigration Section.  She is also a member of the Federal Bar Association (FBA), the South Asian Bar Association of New Jersey (SABA-NJ), New Jersey Women Lawyers Association (NJWLA) and the Solo and Small Firm Section of NJSBA.
