What Our Clients Say

Common Causes of E-Scooter Accidents

E-scooter crashes can happen in seconds. Riders are exposed, unprotected, and often overlooked by drivers. Worse, scooter companies and cities don’t always maintain safe conditions.

We represent clients injured in accidents involving:

  • Drivers who fail to yield, merge unsafely, or drive distracted
  • Road hazards, such as potholes, uneven pavement, or debris
  • Vehicles opening doors into bike lanes or scooter paths (“dooring”)

Whether you were injured while riding a scooter or hit by someone riding one, we help you understand your rights—and demand accountability from those responsible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can be held responsible for an e-scooter accident?

Depending on the case, liable parties may include: negligent drivers, rideshare companies, scooter manufacturers, cities (for road hazards), and even the scooter companies themselves. We’ll identify everyone who played a role in your injury.

Can I sue the city if bad road conditions caused my crash?

Possibly. Dangerous road conditions can lead to claims against local or state government agencies, or even private property owners. These cases require fast action due to shorter deadlines—so contact us right away.

Are e-scooter accidents covered by car insurance?

If a car hit you, the driver’s auto insurance may cover your injuries. If they’re uninsured or underinsured, your own coverage (if available) may apply. We’ll review all potential policies and coverage options.

What if the scooter malfunctioned or broke mid-ride?

Scooter companies may be liable for defective or poorly maintained equipment. We’ll investigate whether there was a product defect or maintenance failure and pursue a product liability claim if appropriate. Be sure to take photos of the malfunctioning part of the e-scooter.

What if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?

You may still have a case. While helmets are recommended and sometimes required by law, not wearing one doesn’t automatically bar you from recovering compensation. We’ll assess the facts and protect your rights.
