WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

You guys were amazing!
I recommend them 100%
Natalia was the lead attorney assigned to assist my case. They both had my best interests in mind, were transparent, and gave me all the support , and confidence I needed since the beginning.
In addition to that, Elizabeth has a very positive mindset, and high energy. Natalia would always go the extra mile! She promptly responded to all my emails, and clarified any doubts I would have. Providing detailed information about any questions I had - even when I thought it could be a silly one.
I am confident to say that Elizabeth and Natalia brought their best assets, knowledge, and did everything in their power so I could have a fortunate outcome to my case!
Not only myself, but two other friends had their cases handled by Garvish Immigration. In which their applications to USCIS were also successfully approved!

I consulted other immigration firms in Atlanta that responded poorly, fortunately, Garvish Immigration Law Group managed my case with care and pulled every stop along the way.
They ended up clearing up my criminal background and i got my green card!!! They really are there for you and anytime you call them, they will pick up!! Its needless to say they really get the JOB DONE!

I will be forever thankful to Elizabeth & her extraordinary team. They have shown the highest experience, professionalism, warmth, efficiency and speed during my process like no one else on their field.
To be able to fully get to know your story and take the time to learn your goals is something I cannot recommend any other immigration lawyer to do. She is incomparable.
Thank you, Elizabeth!

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and I wish you all nice Christmas!
The Garvish Law team is an incredible team of women to conduct business with, they will have your hand until the end. Thank you guys again for everything.
As we are in the season of thanksgiving we just wanted to pause and say a huge thank to Elizabeth, Alexandra and their whole team. They have worked tirelessly to ensure that we had the best immigration experience that we could have here in America and this relationship has been at least three years in the works. Through each of those years they held our hands and skillfully guided us with their expertise and helped us not to feel alone in this big long struggle and wait. Our case was complicated and required a long wait but they constantly checked in, did their research, consulted with colleagues to ensure that we were taking all the right steps. Before meeting Elizabeth and her team we had invested so much money and time and emotions into finding different lawyers in Atlanta and eventually just felt jaded about all lawyers. We were disappointed but from our first consultation with Elizabeth we found a place that we would felt comfortable trusting them with our case and knew that it was in good hands. Also Alexandra did an amazing job she made herself available with all our questions including the repeated “how much longer?” They kept us up to date and informed of everything along this journey. Working with them on our case has been a life changing blessing and we are so very grateful for their diligent hard work and big hearts. -Roman and Danielle 💕
I am glad I trusted them to help and represent me during this long and emotional journey.
Thank you for your hard work, dedication and assistance!
