South Carolina Distracted Driving Attorneys
There are many types of car accidents that occur around the state of South Carolina every day. One of the most preventable, yet most frequent car accident cases, stems from distracted driving. If you’ve been hit by a distracted driver, you may consider an attorney to help you win an insurance or personal injury case as distracted driving can be difficult to prove. The team at Christian & Christian Law Firm in Greenville can help!
What is Distracted Driving?
Distracted driving describes the behavior or stimuli that takes a driver’s attention from the road. The most common distracted driving accidents occur because of texting and driving, which is illegal in most states, including South Carolina. In fact, in 2017, distracted driving was the cause of over 10,000 collisions, 7,400 of which resulted in property damage, 2,300 in significant injuries and caused 9 fatalities.
Other types of distracted driving behaviors include:
- Eating while driving
- Grooming or putting on makeup while driving
- Hands off the wheel
- Reaching for items while driving, specifically into the backseat or console(s)
Why Should I Hire an Attorney for my Distracted Driving Case?
Distracted driving accidents can be complicated because they are often difficult to prove if there are no witnesses or confessions. Since most distracted driving accidents result in property damage like running into guardrails, going off the road, or into someone’s fence or lawn, most cases result in not getting the proper insurance coverage to fix the damage.
After a car accident, a car accident lawyer can help gather information about the accident or damage and give you legal advice in negotiating the insurance claims and pursuing compensation for damages or long-term suffering. Additionally, a car accident lawyer can help you with:
- Conducting the investigation
- Demonstrating the scenario around the crash in front of a jury
- Representing negotiations in court
- Keeping you privy to any updates throughout the process

Client Reviews
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.
