E-Bike and E-Scooter Accident Lawyer in Gilbert
If you’ve been hurt in Arizona, call the Anti-Lawyer Lawyer
Electric bikes (e-bikes) and electric scooters (e-scooters) can be seen a lot on the streets of Gilbert and other cities and towns throughout the state. But many drivers think they are just annoying and don’t act responsibly. The result is often a car accident that leaves users of these vehicles seriously hurt.
Recovering financial compensation after an accident involving an e-bike or e-scooter can be complicated. Insurance companies will try to pay you a little as possible. E-bike and e-scooter accident attorney Byron Browne of Browne Law Group knows how insurance companies operate and can help you fight back.
How e-bike and e-scooter accidents happen
Operators of e-bikes and e-scooters have the right to use Arizona roads, just as operators of bicycles do. But some drivers are aggressive and don’t like to share the road. This can lead to careless and irresponsible actions on their part that cause accidents. Types of accidents involving e-bikes and e-scooters include:
- Speeding accidents – A driver is not obeying the speed limit and can’t stop in time to avoid hitting an e-bike or e-scooter.
- Intersection accidents – A driver makes a left turn without checking for a bike or scooter coming from the other direction. Or the driver makes a right turn, failing to check for an approaching bike or scooter in the rear-view mirror.
- Distracted driving crashes – Drivers are texting, talking on the phone, or adjusting dashboard controls and take their eyes off the road.
- Dooring accidents – An e-bike or e-scooter passes a parked car, just as the driver or a passenger suddenly swings open the door.
The cost of an e-bike or e-scooter accident can be high
Operators of e-bikes and e-scooters don’t have much protection out the road and can suffer serious injuries in a crash. These include broken bones, concussions and traumatic brain injury (TBI), and injuries to the knee, shoulder, neck, or back.
Medical expenses can add up fast following an e-bike or e-scooter accident injury. These expenses can include the costs of X-rays and MRIs, surgery, hospital stays, medication, physical therapy, home care, and follow-up doctor visits. This can lead to financial stress, especially if you are unable to work. If a negligent driver caused the accident, you shouldn’t have to pay.
But recovering financial compensation can be a difficult process. Negligent drivers often deny doing anything wrong. Insurance companies may question the seriousness of your injuries. They may even blame you for causing the accident.
That’s not right. That’s why you need Byron Browne on your side.
A car accident lawyer who will fight for the compensation you need
Attorney Byron Browne knows the games that insurance companies play. They may seem like they are helping, especially if they offer you a settlement. But that settlement offer is designed to help them save money. It will fall far short of covering all of the damages you suffered.

We gather evidence, review accident reports and medical records, and interview witnesses. That helps us build a strong case that insurance companies can’t just ignore.
Byron also takes a close look at all of your damages and demands compensation. How much can you recover for an e-bike or e-scooter accident? Every case is unique. But in general, you can seek compensation for all current and future medical expenses related to your injuries, lost wages if you can’t work, and other damages such as pain and suffering. Byron takes a tough stance in negotiations and will fight for the compensation you deserve.
