Summary
Joe Rice, the legendary co-founder of Motley Rice and a titan in American litigation, passed away at 72—leaving behind a legacy defined by courtroom battles against Big Tobacco, the Deepwater Horizon disaster, and the opioid epidemic. A devoted Gamecock fan and generous philanthropist, he transformed the University of South Carolina Law School and was honored at a football game before his death. Known as a visionary negotiator and mentor, Rice’s impact spanned legal history and community service. His funeral is set for September 14th in Charleston; in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to USC Law or The Rice Family Fund.
