In recent years, electric scooters (e-scooters) have surged in popularity and are now widely available to purchase, including from major retailers. However, there is considerable confusion around the legality of e-scooters in Scotland and the law on their use is far more restrictive than most private owners realise. Nevertheless, e-scooters continue to be used extensively and injuries related to them are on the rise. In particular, pedestrians are vulnerable to severe hurt should a collision occur, with some injuries even proving fatal.

If you're a parent, the thought of your child being injured in an accident as a result of someone else's negligence doesn't bear thinking about. Unfortunately, children can be injured in accidents just like adults. But what do you do when it happens, and it isn't their fault? Many parents are unaware that they can pursue a personal injury claim on their child's behalf and that the claiming procedure is very similar to that of an adult.
