Since leaving the Solicitor's Office in 1988 Morgan has blended a practice of criminal, personal injury, and other litigation. As a criminal attorney he is a trial veteran handling in excess of over 100 murder cases with at least 40 of those being trials, with the majority of those trials ending in acquittals. As a civil attorney Morgan has tried or successfully settled dozens of cases and has on occasion owned the largest collectible jury verdict at the time in Horry County.
He has been a SuperLawyer for 12 consecutive years and currently listed in South Carolina's Top 25 and has achieved Martindale Hubble's highest ranking.
