Thomas Garvie
Thomas is a Wyoming native and a graduate of the University of Wyoming where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science before attending the University of Wyoming College of Law. While studying at the College of Law, he focused on gaining as much practical experience as possible.
During that time, Thomas served as a Judicial Intern to Wyoming Supreme Court Justice Keith G. Kautz, interned at the Albany County Attorney’s Office as well as the Hirst Applegate Law Firm, and spent his final year working as a student-attorney for the College of Law’s Defender Aid Clinic.
Thomas’ dream upon graduating was to become a Public Defender to help protect those without the knowledge to defend themselves nor the financial ability to hire an attorney. He spent his first years of practice with the Wyoming Public Defender’s Office, representing 200-300 individuals a year, each facing serious criminal charges.
Not every attorney likes to go to court, but there is no place Thomas is more comfortable. While he meets each new client with compassion and empathy, he understands that honed skills and the willingness to fight are what will make a difference in their lives.
