How Can a Seattle e-Bike Lawyer Help?

There are two ways you can be injured while on an e-bike. One is in an accident with a driver and another is due to a malfunction of the e-bike.

If you were injured due to a driver

A Seattle e-bicycle accident attorney can help you recover from an at-fault driver by filing a claim through the at-faults insurance. An insurance company is going to do everything they can to convince you to take a settlement for less than you deserve. A bicycle accident attorney in Seattle can negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf and make sure they don’t try any underhanded tactics.

If you were injured due to a malfunctioning e-bike

If you were injured due to a malfunctioning e-bike, a product liability attorney can assist you in filing a product liability lawsuit against the e-bike manufacturer.

Regardless of how you were injured on your e-bike, you shouldn’t be stuck with costly medical and rehabilitation bills. An e-bicycle accident lawyer can maximize your settlement by:

• Gathering and presenting evidence to insurers or at trial
• Responding to requests for additional information from insurers or opposing counsel
• Negotiating with insurers and opposing counsel with decades of experience

E-Bike Injuries

E-bicycle injuries can be catastrophic. The most common e-bicycle accident injuries we see are:

• Broken bones and fractures
• Abrasions, lacerations, and contusions
• Dislocations
• Head trauma
• Internal bleeding
• Spinal cord injuries

Seattle e-Bicycle Laws

If you are riding an e-bicycle in Seattle, it is imperative to follow Seattle’s e-bike laws. The e-bike laws include:

• Wearing a helmet at all times.
• If your e-bike is a class 3 bike that goes above 28 mph, you cannot ride it on the sidewalk or bike trail.
• You must be 16 years old to ride a class 3 e-bike.
