HOW WE WORK

Frequently Asked Questions About

Electric Scooter Injuries.

E-scooter injury claims are often complex. Here are some questions we commonly hear from injured riders and pedestrians:

  • Who’s responsible for an electric scooter accident?

    It depends. Liability may fall on a driver, a scooter company, a product manufacturer, or a city. We investigate every angle to determine who’s at fault and how to pursue your claim.

  • What if the scooter malfunctioned?

    If your crash involved brake failure, electrical issues, or a battery fire, you may have a product liability claim. We work with technical experts to evaluate device defects and hold manufacturers accountable.

  • Can I sue the city if the road was unsafe?

    Possibly. If your injury was caused by a poorly maintained road, sidewalk, or lack of signage, we’ll assess whether a government entity can be held liable—though these cases follow special procedures.

  • What injuries are common in scooter crashes?

    We see concussions, broken wrists, dental trauma, facial lacerations, and spine injuries. Even low-speed impacts can cause long-term damage, especially in riders not wearing helmets.

  • How much does it cost to hire your firm?

    There’s no cost unless we recover compensation for you. We offer free consultations and only get paid if we win your case.
