Nathalie Morgan was born in Belgium as a dual citizen, was raised in the U.S. and Europe, and studied in Spain and Vienna, but the place she loves best is Greenville. “I love it here and I never want to leave,” said Morgan, an attorney who has a degree from UNC Chapel Hill and graduated from the Loyola University New Orleans School of Law in 2001. “It has a great, diverse atmosphere. I love all of the people who are native South Carolinians and the diversity from other countries as well. I’m here to stay.” In addition to her impressive academic credentials, certifications and licenses, Morgan brings a unique skill to the table: she’s trilingual (English, French and Spanish). Fluency in Spanish is one of the reasons a friend encouraged her to join as a partner in a Greenville law firm that had a large Hispanic client base. She went on to found Nathalie M. Morgan Law Firm more than five years ago, focusing on family law, divorce cases, custody litigation and immigration issues. Nathalie knew from an early age that she wanted to go into law. “My father was an attorney, and I could argue with him from an early age,” she said. After out-arguing her dad, her mom told her, “One day, you’ll go to law school.” She is glad she did, finding fulfillment helping families and individuals with a range of important issues, from step-parent adoption, divorce custody and international child abduction. Her international law certificate and federal law license enable her to take on cases some firms aren’t equipped to handle. She also has extensive experience dealing with family courts in the Upstate and throughout South Carolina, and though her team always seeks amicable divorce settlements when possible, they aggressively represent clients in the courtroom on a regular basis. As an attorney and single mom to daughter Chloé, Nathalie’s free time is limited, but when she can, she enjoys photography, traveling and cycling. She also volunteers her time by doing pro bono work and serving organizations such as the Hispanic Alliance, Upstate Global Professional Committee, the Greenville Chamber Hispanic Development Committee, the Greenville Tech advisory board and the Greenville County Human Relations Commission.
