Determining Liability in an Electric Scooter Accident: 

When an accident occurs involving an electric scooter, there may be multiple parties involved. Determining fault depends entirely on the circumstances of the accident, and a skilled Topeka electric scooter accident lawyer can help. 

Potential parties that may be held liable for the e-scooter accident include: 

  • Driver of the Electric Scooter: The operator of the scooter could be held liable for injuries suffered by pedestrians or if they are found operating the scooter negligently.  
  • Driver of the Vehicle: Motorists who are negligent or aggressive may be liable for electric scooter-related accidents.  
  • Electric Scooter Company: Scooter manufacturing companies have a duty to take care of their products, ensuring they are safe and secure for the public to use. 

Our Topeka e-scooter attorneys can help you determine who’s at fault, so you have the best chance at receiving the compensation you need to move forward with your life.
