I never left a review after the incredible services this law firm provided me. I was in a car accident. Steve Franklin was caring and extremely helpful during the traumatic time. I was new to living in the area and felt so comfortable and supported by him. Five years later…. They still send me birthday cards. I know, I know…. It may seem silly, but this is such a sweet gesture! 10/10 Recommend.

I am very Lucky to have found Ian De Verna for my attorney. I was injured in a car accident and while Ian was working on my case I was hit by someone again. This time the person had no insurance I was injured again and my brand new car was totaled. Being injured again I was pretty scared but thankfully Ian took on this case for uninsured motorist against my insurance company as well. It was a challenge I am sure but Ian and his staff were very professional and caring the whole time. With all Ian's hard work he was able to get policy limits for both cases. Ian is not only good at his profession but truly cares about his clients and works very hard with his great group of people at Becker Franklin Rovang Injury office

Laws & Regulations That May Impact Your Claim
Seeking compensation after an e-bike or e-scooter accident can be complicated and confusing, especially without a comprehensive understanding of Washington law. Regardless of the circumstances of the accident, working with a knowledgeable attorney is critical to navigating your case effectively and pursuing a just settlement.
Various state-specific regulations may influence the outcome of your e-bike or e-scooter accident claim, including:
Comparative Negligence Rule
Washington state follows a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that if you were partially at fault for the accident, your compensation will be reduced by the percentage of your fault. For example, if you are found to be 25% at fault for an accident totaling $10,000 in damages, your compensation will be reduced to $7,500.
State Safety Regulations
Washington has state-specific rules governing the operation of electric bikes and scooters. Riders must adhere to designated bike lanes and paths. While helmets are only mandatory for riders under 18 years old, not wearing a helmet can negatively affect your claim, regardless of age. In some cases, local jurisdictions may have their own rules for electric bikes and scooters, which can also affect liability.
Insurance Implications
Insurance also plays a critical role in e-bike and e-scooter accidents. Having adequate coverage can help facilitate a smoother claims process while riding without proper insurance can lead to challenges in your claim. Being aware of applicable insurance regulations and requirements is vital to making informed decisions and pursuing a favorable outcome in your claim.
