Attorney Mark Joye Selected to South Carolina Lawyers Weekly’s Personal Injury Power List

Charleston, South Carolina – Mark Joye, Head of the Litigation Department at Joye Law Firm Injury Lawyers, has been selected to the South Carolina Lawyers Weekly 2026 Power List for Personal Injury, an annual recognition honoring influential attorneys that have shaped the state’s legal landscape.

Power List honorees are chosen based on a rigorous set of criteria, including leadership within the legal community, mastery of relevant case law and statutes, a demonstrated record of success, peer respect and referrals, and meaningful involvement in bar leadership and community service.

With over 36 years of practice, Joye is widely respected for his leadership, courtroom tenacity and ethical approach to complex personal injury and product liability litigation. He is consistently selected for inclusion in the annual Best Lawyers in America® and chosen “Lawyer of the Year” in both Personal Injury and Product Liability in the Charleston area. Among his most notable achievements is a landmark $262.5 million verdict in an auto defect case, one of the largest personal injury verdicts in South Carolina history, which helped hold a global manufacturer accountable and advance consumer safety.

“Being included on the Power List is especially meaningful because it reflects the respect of my peers in the legal community,” Joye said. “I’ve always believed in fighting hard for my clients, and doing it the right way by being prepared, ethical, and fair. At the end of the day, our work is about standing up for people who feel outmatched and making sure their voices are heard.”

Joye’s path to plaintiff-side litigation includes a stint as a corporate defense attorney before joining the firm founded by his father, Reese Joye. That perspective, he says, sharpened his resolve to represent individuals and families facing powerful corporations and insurers after catastrophic injuries. Over the years, his work has included high-profile wrongful death cases, complex trucking collisions, defective product claims, and meaningful pro bono victories.

As Head of the Litigation Department, Joye collaborates closely with attorneys across the firm to ensure cases are thoroughly prepared and clients’ recoveries are maximized. His leadership extends beyond the firm through extensive bar involvement, including serving as President of the Charleston County Bar Association, President of the South Carolina Association for Justice, and President of the Charleston Chapter of the American Board of Trial Advocates. He has also served on the Board of Governors for the American Association for Justice.

A committed mentor and advocate for the civil justice system, Joye continues to focus on guiding younger attorneys and addressing challenges facing the profession amid a rapidly evolving legal landscape.

The 2026 Power List recognition underscores Joye’s enduring impact on South Carolina’s legal community and his continued commitment to fighting for justice on behalf of everyday people across the state.
