Who is Liable for My Accident and Onewheel Injuries?
Who is responsible for paying your medical bills and other expenses after a Onewheel accident on Long Island depends on the circumstances of what happened. We will determine what caused your crash and prove who is at fault. We may be able to help you recover the compensation you need and deserve if:
- A driver violated a traffic law and hit you
- There was a malfunction with the Onewheel which caused you to fall
- You were a pedestrian hit by a reckless Onewheel rider
In many cases, the at-fault party in Onewheel accidents is an individual. If their negligent operation of a motor vehicle resulted in your Onewheel accident injuries, they should have auto liability insurance and possibly an umbrella policy meant to cover the injuries in a crash they caused. In other cases, though, a corporation is to blame.
Unlike most electric kick scooters (e-scooters), many Onewheels are owned by individuals riding them, but this is not always true. There are many circumstances when the manufacturer or a rental company is to blame. Our Onewheel accident lawyer will collect and analyze available evidence to determine exactly what happened and the potentially liable parties.

New York Law Limits Your Time to Sue the At-Fault Party for Damages
While there are deadlines for suing the at-fault parties in personal injury accident cases, these are not the only timelines you need to know. You should consider how beginning our investigation early gives us the best opportunity to identify and gather evidence to support your claim.
Some evidence does not last very long. Skid marks wash away with the first rain, surveillance video gets recorded over, and eyewitnesses forget the details of what they saw. We need to capture this proof of what happened to you before this happens.
The statutes of limitations on these cases also restrict how long you have to file a suit. They include:
- Personal injuries: New York Civil Practice Laws & Rules § 214
- Wrongful deaths: Estates, Powers & Trusts § 5-4.1
We can review any other deadlines applicable to your case during your free consultation. We ensure our clients do not lose their right to sue if they enlist our help with time for us to do so.
