Princy Sethi-Wadhwa, with 8+ years of legal experience, thoroughly enjoys the practice of law, and puts a 100% of her head and heart into every case. She has effectively handled complex and demanding matters on behalf of Companies as well as Individuals.
Princy’s Immigration related clients know her best for accurately presenting their cases before USCIS, for successfully reinstating the status of individuals who have accidently let their status lapse, and for keeping those who have been misguided, and are about to lose their status, remain in the United States. She also has obtained approvals for 100s of cases after responding to complicated Requests for Evidence and Immigration/DOL Audits.
Her Family Law clients appreciate her for handling their legal needs in the most cost-effective manner for them, while simultaneously guiding them through difficult and highly emotional family break-ups.
Princy’s Business Law clients value the comprehensive analysis of their business goals and objectives, along with the clearly drafted contracts/agreements representing their rights and obligations.
Last but not least, Princy's Estate Planning clients are delighted by the fact that she takes the time to brainstorm with, and understand the circumstances of, each individual before capturing their desires and needs into legal documents.
An active participant in the DFW and legal community, Princy has spoken on complicated H1-B issues at the Texas Chapter conference of the American Immigration Lawyer’s Association (AILA), and at events arranged by the Greater Dallas Indo-American Chamber of Commerce (GDIACC) and other organizations.

Princy has been recognized for her commitment to the compassionate and passionate practice of law in the Asian newspaper, Voice of Asia, as well as in the weekly legal newspaper, The Texas Lawyer.
Princy’s most recent pro-bono commitment is to regularly host legal clinics for the benefit of underprivileged individuals.
