A Motor Scooter Accident Injury Can Do Permanent Damage
Whether you are a commuter trying to save gas or just a motor scooter driver for the practical advantages the vehicle offers, you have an equal right to use most roadways. Like a bicyclist or motorcycle rider, however, you also run a greater risk of serious injury in any kind of accident.
As the use of scooters has increased throughout the Chicagoland area, so too have the number and frequency of scooter-related accidents.
At the Illinois law offices of Salvi & Maher, L.L.C., our legal team is committed to providing experienced representation to people who have been injured in a scooter accident due to someone else's error.
Lawyers for Vespa, Moped and Motor Scooter Accidents
A motor scooter accident can have serious consequences and cause major injuries that may have affected your ability to work or even participate in your normal life. For some, those injuries may be temporary — for others it may be permanent.
Particularly if you were involved in a crash with a car or larger vehicle, you and your family may need substantial compensation to pay for medical costs, lost wages and other damages. Our attorneys take on a wide range of scooter accident cases including those resulting in:
- Head injuries
- Back injuries
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Fractures
- Contusions (bruising)
- Road burns
- Lacerations and deep cuts
Scooters are an enjoyable and affordable mode of transportation, but they do not provide significant rider protection. This means that even at relatively low speeds, accidents can be very serious. Whether you are the driver of the vehicle or a passenger in an accident, we work to help you get the compensation you need.
