Can I hold a bike shop liable for faulty repairs that contributed to a crash?
Yes. If you had your bike or e-bike repaired at a local bicycle shop, the owner of the bike shop can be held liable for poor maintenance and faulty repairs that contributed to an accident. Establishing cause and effect can be challenging, which is why you need to preserve the bill or invoice describing the repair work that was done, the damaged bike, your clothing and helmet after the crash, and take photos of the accident site.
Be sure to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible. We can begin investigating what led to your accident and building a strong case.
