Scooter Accident Cases
Overview
As technological advancements take us further from fossil fuel consumption, we are rapidly innovating the ways in which we get from place to place. One new development in this sector are new electrical scooters, the most popular of which being Birds and Limes. Mostly seen in Southern California, Birds and Limes work on a rechargeable battery and ride on two wheels. These scooters are activated by phones, and can travel miles before being deactivated. They charge users by time, distance, or a combination of both. While these are a new and exciting source of clean energy transportation, they have posed several safety concerns for users and surrounding motorists, with electric scooter accidents happening on a regular basis.
Logistics
These open air vehicles can cause catastrophe if handled improperly. After the situation has subsided and everything is safe, it is advised that you speak with an expert personal injury attorney from our firm immediately. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns you have. If you ride these scooters often, then we strongly recommend that you wear a helmet.

These accidents can lead to property damage and, more importantly, severe injury. Injuries often sustained in electric scooter accidents include fractures, head injuries, lacerations, contusions, and strains.
Risk Factors
Commonly, the rider of the electric scooter is blamed for the accident. However, depending on the situation, motorists, pedestrians, or other external factors may be the cause of an electric scooter accident.
- Improper maintenance of roads (city authorities)
- Improper maintenance of the scooters themselves
- Motor vehicle drivers
- Parts manufacturers
- Any intermediaries involved in fulfilling the safety protocols of these scooters

FAQs
Here to Serve You
Insurance companies are notorious for taking advantage of injured parties after an accident. The average person is not well versed in the law, and insurance companies use this to their advantage to not pay the full value of a claim. Powerful legal representation is needed to make sure you receive maximum compensation for your injuries. If you have been injured in an accident, we encourage you to contact us, so you can be compensated fully for your injuries. Call the LawFellas 24/7 at (844) 4-CAFIRM for a free consultation.
As personal injury attorneys, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means that if we don’t win your case, YOU DON’T PAY! If we do win your case and obtain a settlement, we then collect a percentage of that settlement to cover our fees and costs. There is absolutely no risk or upfront cost to you when hiring us as your attorney.
Many clients often have already begun the claims process with the insurance company and find themselves either stressed and overwhelmed with the process or unable to pay out of pocket for their medical treatment. This is when they look into retaining our firm to assist them with the process. Our office works with cases at any stage of the claims process. Once retained, we will immediately inform the insurance companies to direct all further communication to our firm, so you can focus on the main priority, recovering from your injuries and getting the appropriate treatment.
Insurance companies don’t share the same interest as you. Their goal is to pay the least amount of money on your injury claim. An attorney will be able to provide you with an unbiased opinion of your case and see if pursuing legal action is warranted. LawFellas provides free consultations to evaluate your personal injury claim.
At LawFellas, we handle small cases such as soft tissue injuries/ whiplash to medium and large cases such as catastrophic injuries and wrongful death. We provide free consultations to review any case, small or large.
No! LawFellas does not charge for consultations. Please call us at (844) 4-CAFIRM to discuss your case.
While we prepare every case with the depth and strength it would need to be successful at trial, at LawFellas we do our best to obtain a settlement before stepping foot in court.

Auto Accident Cases
Overview
Advancements in the automobile industry and local infrastructure have made driving a much safer task than it previously had been. Nonetheless, millions of automobile accident or “auto accidents” occur every year, leaving victims with a substantial amount of property damage and possible severe injuries. If you or a loved one have been injured or otherwise harmed due to the negligence or inattention of another driver, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your damages.
Logistics
Minor and major car accidents can result in injury. Adrenaline may mask the full extent of one’s injuries. For this reason, it is highly advised to seek medical attention following an accident, even if you feel that you may not need it. Keeping one’s eyes on the road, avoiding distractions, and refraining from DUI (driving under the influence) are all simple ways of decreasing the likelihood of collisions. Distractions, technical defects, alcohol/drugs, and faulty infrastructure are among the most common causes of automobile accidents.
