Mr. Lovell Glanton and his associates worked with me on my case and they were PHENOMENAL!! There wasn’t a week or month that went by that I wasn’t fully aware of how my case was going. They kept me updated, asked me what I was comfortable with and wanted to do, I was treated with the upmost respect and kindness. This whole experience has been tough but very rewarding. Anytime that I had any questions after business hours I was able to call Mr.Glanton personally and speak with him immediately. They never let my case fall thru the cracks & even educated me on the whole process. THANK YOU SOO MUCH Mr.Glanton, your hard work is very much appreciated and valued. I couldn’t be happier with how everything was handled, very professional business and kind people who work there.

You Only Pay If We Win
We handle electric scooter accident cases on a contingency fee basis. Under this plan, clients do not pay attorney fees at the beginning of representation. Instead, legal fees are calculated as a percentage of the financial recovery obtained through settlement or court judgment.
If no recovery is secured in the case, no attorney fees are owed. This provides access to legal representation for injured individuals who may be experiencing financial strain due to medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and lost income following an accident, ensuring that economic factors do not prevent them from seeking appropriate compensation for injuries sustained in electric scooter accidents.
Recoverable Damages in Electric Scooter Accidents
Emergency and Ongoing Medical Expenses: Compensation covers immediate emergency room visits, ambulance transportation, hospitalization costs, surgeries, and follow-up medical care.
Rehabilitation and Therapy Costs: This encompasses physical therapy, rehabilitation, and other specialized treatments needed for recovery. Rehabilitation expenses often extend beyond what insurance covers and may continue for months or years after the initial injury.
Lost Income and Earning Capacity: Compensation addresses wages lost during recovery periods when injuries prevent returning to work. This also accounts for diminished future earning potential if injuries result in permanent earning limitations.
Assistive Devices and Home Modifications: Coverage for mobility aids, prosthetics, braces, or other medical equipment needed after serious injuries. This category may include necessary home modifications or other accessibility expenses.
Wrongful Death Damages: When an electric scooter accident results in fatality, compensation may cover funeral reparations, medical charges prior to death, loss of financial support, and other economic losses. This addresses the financial impact on surviving family members who depended on the deceased’s income and support.
Electric Scooter Rules for the Business District
Nashville’s business district has stricter regulations regarding electric scooter use. Sidewalk riding is explicitly prohibited in these areas to protect the higher concentration of pedestrians.
Additionally, there are designated parking zones for scooters in the business district, and failure to use them can result in fines. Understanding these specific rules is important when determining liability, as violations may constitute negligence if they contributed to an accident.
Common Injuries Resulting from Electric Scooter Accidents
Concussions
Traumatic brain injuries commonly happen when riders are thrown from scooters at speed. Recovery from concussions and related traumatic brain injuries may require cognitive rest, gradual return to activities, and in severe cases, specialized neurological treatment.
Facial and Dental Trauma
Facial injuries are unfortunately common in scooter accidents, with riders often unable to fully protect their face during sudden stops or collisions. These injuries frequently involve dental damage, jaw fractures, or soft tissue lacerations requiring reconstructive procedures.
Wrist and Bone Fractures
The natural response to falling—extending arms to break the fall—frequently results in wrist fractures, broken collarbones, or dislocated shoulders during scooter accidents. These injuries often require surgical intervention with pins or plates, followed by physical therapy to restore range of motion and strength.
Road Rash
Contact with the rough pavement during falls or slides can remove multiple layers of skin. Severe road rash may require debridement procedures, infection prevention, and specialized wound care. Deep abrasions often leave permanent scarring and may result in nerve damage, affecting sensation in the affected areas.

Frequently Asked Questions About Electric Scooter Accidents
How does sidewalk riding affect liability in scooter accident cases?
Sidewalk riding is prohibited in Nashville’s business district but allowed in other areas. This distinction matters in accident cases. If an accident occurs while electric scooter riders are illegally using a sidewalk in a prohibited zone, it may constitute negligence. Conversely, if a vehicle driver hits a scooter user who is lawfully riding on a sidewalk in a permitted area, this strengthens the victim’s claim.
What role do medical records play in electric scooter injury claims?
Medical records are key evidence in establishing the connection between the accident and your injuries. They document the nature and extent of your injuries, treatments received, and long-term prognosis. When pursuing a personal injury claim for a scooter accident, comprehensive medical records help demonstrate both economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) and non-economic damages (physical pain, suffering).
How does not having a valid driver’s license impact scooter accident claims?
Riding an electric scooter without a valid driver’s license in Nashville violates local regulations and may affect your ability to recover compensation if injured. However, it doesn’t automatically disqualify you from seeking damages. The relevance of this violation to your accident is key – if the lack of a license didn’t cause or contribute to the accident, you may still have a valid claim, though the violation could potentially reduce your recovery under comparative negligence principles.
