Leah Garrett
Leah has dedicated herself to advocating on behalf of individuals that have been injured through no fault of their own and works tirelessly to make sure her clients are heard, respected, and obtain the compensation they deserve.
Leah graduated from San Francisco State University with a B.A. in History, graduating Magna Cum Laude. After graduating, Leah attended law school at the University of Alabama School of Law where she focused her studies and activities on helping those in need, earning her school’s Public Interest Certificate, Dean’s Community Service Award, and ultimately being inducted into the Order of the Samaritan.
After graduating law school in 2012, Leah moved back to Florida where she worked as an Assistant State Attorney with the Office of the State Attorney for the First Circuit of Florida in Pensacola, Florida. During her four years of prosecuting misdemeanor and felony criminal law violations, Leah gained valuable courtroom and jury trial experience.
In 2017, Leah traded in the beach for the mountains and moved to Denver, Colorado. After three years at a large personal injury firm in Colorado, she made her way to Zaner Harden Personal Injury Lawyers. Leah is proud to work at Zaner Harden Personal Injury Lawyers, where she can give each case the attention it deserves and focus on making positive impacts on her clients’ lives.
In her free time, Leah enjoys skiing, going to concerts, and exploring Colorado. At home, she can be found cooking and hanging out with her fiance and her kids (two dogs and two cats.)
