Riding an e-bike or e-scooter offers freedom and convenience — but when crashes happen, the consequences can be serious. At Leitner Warywoda, PLLC, our dedicated New York City and Long Island injury attorneys represent victims of e-bike and electric scooter accidents with skill and compassion. We understand the unique legal challenges that come with these modern modes of transportation, and we fight to hold negligent parties accountable.

​

Understanding Legal Risks for E-Bike & E-Scooter Riders

​

Electric bikes and scooters operate at high speeds, share the road with vehicles, and often navigate crowded urban environments. When collisions occur, liability could fall on motorists, device manufacturers, rental companies, or property owners. Both e-bikes and e-scooters face regulatory gaps, and proving fault can require a detailed investigation — especially in a city like New York where road conditions and traffic make these accidents complex.

​

Common Types of Injuries in E-Vehicle Crashes

​

Victims of e-bike and e-scooter accidents often suffer a range of injuries, from broken bones and lacerations to head trauma and soft-tissue damage. Even relatively low-speed trips can lead to serious harm, especially when riders fall or are struck by larger vehicles. In many cases, medical costs, lost income, and long-term treatment add up — and a strong legal claim can make all the difference.

​

Building a Strong Case for E-Bike & Scooter Accidents

​

To build a winning case, our team collects critical evidence: we reconstruct how the crash happened, interview witnesses, review traffic camera footage, and examine device defects or maintenance issues. We also partner with medical experts to document the full impact of your injuries. Whether the crash was caused by a negligent driver, a faulty scooter, or someone else’s property risk, we know how to make your voice heard and demand fair compensation.

​

What to Do If You've Been Hurt

​

If you’ve been injured in an e-bike or e-scooter accident in New York City or on Long Island, it’s essential to act quickly. Immediately after the crash, seek medical treatment — even if the injuries feel minor at first. Document the scene: take photos of the vehicle, the device, road conditions, and any damage. Collect contact information from witnesses and, if possible, file a police or incident report.

​

Once you’re in a stable position, contact a specialized e-bike & e-scooter accident attorney. At Leitner Warywoda, PLLC, we handle all communication with insurance companies, reconstruct the accident, and look out for your long-term recovery — so you can focus on healing.
