Electric bikes and scooters have become a popular way to get around Philadelphia and the surrounding areas, but their speed, weight, and the way they share the road with cars, pedestrians, and traditional bicycles make crashes especially dangerous. Riders often suffer serious injuries such as fractures, head trauma, and severe road rash, and pedestrians can also be seriously hurt when struck by an e-bike or e-scooter. The electric bike and scooter accident lawyers at Wieand Parker Arreola, PLLC, help injured riders and pedestrians identify every responsible party and pursue full compensation.
These crashes often result from the negligence of another driver or rider, a defective product, or a hazardous road condition. Common causes we investigate include:
Liability in an electric bike or scooter accident can fall on a negligent driver, another rider, the manufacturer of a defective vehicle or battery, a rental or ride-share company responsible for maintaining its fleet, or a municipality or property owner responsible for a dangerous road or path condition. Our firm investigates every angle of the crash to identify each party who may be held accountable.
If you or a loved one was injured in an electric bike or scooter accident, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other losses. Our attorneys handle every stage of the claims process, from investigation through negotiation or trial, so you can focus on your recovery.
