Legal Entrepreneur Elizabeth Garvish is Forging Her Unique Path to Happiness and Success
Garvish Immigration Law Group is growing under the leadership of Elizabeth Garvish featured on the cover of Attorney At Law Magazine
“A happy team creates happy clients and in turn a happy and successful firm. I don’t share the same values as most of the attorneys I had worked with in the past. I eventually realized that I wanted my future to have more. More compassion, more flexibility, more joy and more freedom. I want Garvish Immigration Law Group to be the happiest law firm in America."
As a lawyer and business owner, Elizabeth is invested in entrepreneurship and taking financial risks to build a different kind of law firm. The firm’s corporate culture is based on client service and their #1 value is Clients Come First - and not that profits come first. In the politically charged world of immigration law, Garvish’s legal immigration team believes that when clients’ needs are prioritized and the entire team is focused on that goal, success and profit will follow. The firm’s team has tripled in the past year, and Garvish Immigration Law is proud of its success at helping businesses bring foreign talent to solve U.S. labor shortages and helping individuals and families achieve the American Dream.
As a working mother, Elizabeth ensures that her legal team has access to the same parental benefits she has as a firm owner. When Elizabeth’s twins were born, she was only able to take two weeks off to be at home with her babies. She felt firsthand how little we actually support mothers in the workplace. The birth of a child is such a beautiful time that parents don’t get back once it is gone. Supporting mothers and giving generous parental leave and accommodations to the mothers on her team has created trust and loyalty with her team and a better and more productive work environment. From experience, Elizabeth knows that lawyers who are worried about problems at home can’t focus on their clients. Flexible hours, remote work opportunities and a commitment to employee happiness allowed Garvish Immigration Law Group to easily pivot and thrive when offices were closed during the pandemic - and results in low employee turnover and retaining a dedicated, talented team.
Elizabeth Garvish was recognized in the 2021 Women in the Law2 Business Edition by Best Lawyers.
