Elizabeth A. Garrett is a Nashville native, born and raised. After graduating from Indiana University, Bloomington, in 1989 she attended Nashville School of Law and began practicing law in 2002. She began her practice of family law with her mentor, Bobby Jackson, until 2016 when she opened her own firm, Garrett Simmons Law.

The group conducts a monthly book club and provides a “Sunday Supper” each month with the youth detained in the Davidson County Juvenile Detention Center.
