Morgan Villers joined Flaherty’s Charleston office in 2018. She is a member of our healthcare law practice group where her practice focuses on defending claims of medical professional liability.
A thorough researcher, Morgan is particularly talented in recognizing the intricacies of a complex case or legal issue. “I am passionate about using my abilities and my years of education to be a stout advocate for my clients, both in legal writing and in the courtroom.”
Outside of the office, Morgan enjoys playing guitar, frequenting concerts, and spending time with family and friends.
