Everyone there was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. My car was totaled, and I was a little intimidated talking with a couple of other lawyers in Greenville. But with Christian and Christian, not only did they answer my questions, but they did so in a way that made what could have been a hectic situation, easy. Overall, an excellent experience with high quality lawyers who truly go above and beyond and really try to get you the results or answers you need.

I met Josh like 4 years ago when my Son was injured at Daycare. He was very concerned about the well being of my Child and Me. Very Understanding Professional and Just a great Staff. If You need a Lawyer that’s all about YOU this is the Place. I just closed a Case on 6/23/2021 from a injury on a Property. They handled everything because no one else would help Me. I’m forever grateful for Your hard Work and Time. Once again Thank You Josh and Sally.

My husband was referred to this law firm from another lawyer after his mother passed away while residing in a nursing home. Matt took on his case and we are pleased with how everything turned out. It took a long, long time to finally settle, but it was worth the wait. The staff here is friendly and I’d be happy to recommend them to anyone needing legal assistance.

I was referred to Harold by a family friend, and I couldn’t be happier. He took the time to listen to my case, answered all my questions and truly treated me like a friend not a client. His knowledge of medical malpractice is priceless he actually successfully won, one of the first medical malpractice cases in Greenville County.

South Carolina Failure to Maintain Auto Accident Lawyers
At Christian & Christian Law, we fight for our clients involved in car accidents of all types. If you’ve been in an auto accident or hit by flying debris from a commercial truck, you could be eligible to collect compensation under the failure to maintain law. Because tractor trailer trucks and cargo trucks tend to drive long distances, they are required to perform regular maintenance. When a driver or company doesn’t take the time to take care for their equipment, they often experience tire blowouts, blown lights or other petty malfunctions that effect drivers. If you’ve been hit due to equipment failures, connect with our Greenville SC car accident lawyers to see how we can fight for compensation!
Common Maintenance Errors
Drivers are involved in accidents every year from flying debris and equipment failures. If you don’t take care of your commercial car or truck regularly, you are at risk of causing an accident. Some of the most common failure to maintain accidents are a result of:
- Tire Issues: Tires can overheat and inflate, which causes major blowouts on high-speed roads. This is one of the most common tractor trailer truck breakdowns and often causes accidents on the road.
- Brakes: Brakes and brake pads wear down quickly on heavier vehicles, which requires routine replacements that your warning lights should display. Failure to replace brakes adequately can result in higher stop times and causes close-range accidents.
- Steering Linkage: If your steering linkage is worn, this can affect the driver’s ability to maintain control and could cause them to swerve lanes and hit side-by-side drivers.
- Rust: A truck with severe rust can result in parts flying off and hitting drivers.
Failure to Maintain Caused by Mechanic Errors
Did you know that a mechanic could also be at fault for truck accidents due to poor service practices? While it’s the driver or company’s responsibility to regularly check their commercial vehicles, a mechanic could also be at fault, meaning more than one party is liable for failure to maintain. If the vehicle was serviced shortly before an accident, it could be the mechanic’s failure to perform the correct maintenance. You should always keep your service records available while driving your commercial truck in the case of an auto accident.
