Yarborough Applegate is thrilled to welcome Megan M. Early-Soppa as the newest addition to our team of trial lawyers. A former defense attorney, Early-Soppa will be based in Greenville, South Carolina, as she continues to deepen Yarborough Applegate’s service to clients in the upstate and beyond.
Most recently a partner at Moseley Marcinak Law Group and having honed her skills navigating complex insurance defense cases, Early-Soppa brings extensive experience in trucking and transportation litigation to the plaintiffs’ side. Her distinct perspective will be invaluable to victims as she navigates the complexities of the transportation industry on their behalf.
“As we enter a new year, we are so fortunate to have Megan join our team of trial lawyers,” says partner Douglas Jennings. “We’ve been on the other side of the courtroom from Megan on more than one occasion, and know firsthand the dedication, precision, and enthusiasm she brings to her legal practice. Her unmistakable drive and unique understanding of defense strategies will endlessly enrich our firm, and more importantly, equip her to be an unrelenting advocate for our clients.”
Early-Soppa adds, “I couldn’t be more excited to embark on this next chapter of my career with this new role. I’m a litigator at heart, and I’m looking forward to being in a position to help individuals who have experienced the unthinkable—to make a meaningful difference in their lives and help them recover. I’m also eager to work with this talented team and help shape the future of one of South Carolina’s most well-respected law firms.”Early-Soppa’s educational background includes a Juris Doctor from Southern University Law Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where she graduated cum laude, and a Bachelor of Arts in Intercultural Studies for Business in Spanish from Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina.

Jennings’ article covers best practices for preserving, obtaining, and using cell phone evidence in a case. It’s a topic he knows well from years working cases and presenting to peers on the practice area.
His presentation focused on obtaining and utilizing forensic cell phone evidence in litigation, specifically in regards to trucking/tractor trailer cases.
Douglas Jennings and Liam Duffy of Yarborough Applegate, alongside Ronnie Sabb of Sabb Law Group, settled a lawsuit on the eve of trial on behalf of a client who broke her ankle after her car slammed into a logging truck that was improperly parked on the side of the road.
This month, join us as we commemorate some of our team’s incredible accomplishments in both their personal and professional lives.
