Asbestos exposure and its related diseases have altered the lives of an untold number of workers in the United States, Canada and other countries. Unfortunately, it's not just the exposed workers that are impacted - often family members of the exposed are also affected.
The inhalation of asbestos fiber has been associated with numerous types of cancer as well as chronic and deadly fibrotic diseases of the lungs such as pleural mesothelioma. In addition to being indestructible, asbestos fibers are invisible, tasteless and odorless. Consequently, people are unknowingly exposed to this deadly mineral. Most individuals diagnosed with mesothelioma have spent years working in industrial jobs where their exposure to asbestos was significant and unnoticed.
Motley Rice LLC is prepared to help you hold those companies responsible for harming you and your family accountable. We aim to not only ease the financial burden of medical treatment, but to let your voice be heard to help provide prevention, hope and precedent for others.

Motley Rice LLC is one of the nation’s largest plaintiffs’ litigation firms, headquartered in South Carolina. More than 30 years ago, our attorneys began landmark litigation against asbestos manufacturers.
In 1978, Motley Rice LLC co-founder Ronald L. Motley first introduced into evidence the infamous Sumner Simpson files, which exposed the fact that asbestos manufacturers knew as early as 1935 that asbestos caused disabling damage to the lungs. He continued to research and investigate asbestos and the medical facts of asbestos-related diseases, and was eventually asked to contribute to several medical journals and serve as guest speaker at numerous medical conferences. Since then, Motley and other Motley Rice attorneys have represented thousands of people who have been exposed to and harmed by asbestos and asbestos products throughout America and Canada.
As a parallel to their litigation efforts, the firm strongly supports national efforts for greater awareness, improved rights and protections, and enhanced medical care for asbestos victims and their loved ones. Motley Rice attorneys have worked with several unions, including the Sheet Metal Workers’ International Association, as legal and advisory counsel, and in 2005, the firm joined the executive advisory board of the International Pleural Mesothelioma Program, based at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.
In addition to their pioneering work on behalf of asbestos victims, Motley Rice attorneys have also gained recognition for their work on behalf of the State Attorneys General in their landmark litigation against the tobacco industry, and the 9/11 families in their groundbreaking lawsuit against terrorist financiers. Motley Rice believes that the occupational injury litigation we embark on today will help create a better, safer work environment for our clients tomorrow.
