Biography

As an Assistant Supervisory Attorney at the Devadoss Law Firm PLLC, Morgan primarily focuses on litigating discrimination and adverse employment actions before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB). She also handles internal employment investigations, Office of Special Counsel (OSC) complaints, and assists clients with responding to proposed discipline. Additionally, Morgan has experience negotiating settlement agreements on behalf of federal employees. Throughout her legal career, Morgan has handled countless cases involving federal government agencies such as USPS, Veterans Affairs, U.S. Attorney's Office, National Security Agency, and many more. In addition to her own practice, Morgan supervises and provides guidance to our associate and senior associate attorneys.

Morgan's philosophy is that great attorneys do not just know the law but also know their clients. No two situations are the same, and a victory can look different for different clients. As such, Morgan prides herself in working with clients not only as their attorney but as their advocate.

Originally from Kalamazoo, Michigan, Morgan is a graduate of Calvin University, where she obtained her bachelor's degree in Spanish and psychology. Morgan moved to Dallas, Texas where she obtained her juris doctor from Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law. While in law school, Morgan was an active member of the Hispanic Law Student Association and Criminal Clinic representing indigent defendants. In her spare time, Morgan enjoys traveling, cooking, cheering for Tottenham Hotspur, and spending time with her family and friends.
