About Carlson Bier

Pedestrian Accident Lawyers in Aledo Illinois

Carlson Bier is an acclaimed personal injury attorney group based in Illinois that advocates for victims of pedestrian accidents. You are more than just a statistic to us; your rights, dignity, and justice matter. Being involved in a pedestrian accident can be life-altering—with potential severe injuries or even fatalities—and it is crucial you have the right legal representation.

A pedestrian accident involves any situation where a person on foot—be it while running, walking, or idly standing—is struck by any moving vehicle such as cars, buses, motorcycles, among others. These accidents occur far too often due to distracted driving, impaired driving from alcohol or drugs, failing to adhere to traffic signals or laws and speeding amongst other causes. These saddening incidents predominantly elevate during adverse weather conditions when visibility becomes poor.

When such unfortunate circumstances transpire, Carlson Bier strives tirelessly on behalf of its clients for fair compensation and justice. Our task as dedicated personal injury attorneys encapsulates:

• Collating relevant evidence

• Spearheading settlement negotiations

• Advocacy during litigation proceedings

• Ensuring deadlines for filing lawsuits are met

We go beyond these tasks with thorough knowledge about traffic regulations and violations which we use towards constructing persuasive cases against negligent parties who caused your suffering unjustly.

One strength partakers find at Carlson Bier is our eagerness to educate clients because knowledge hands power back into your palms when coping with such hardships. As law pertains in Illinois concerning pedestrians:

• Pedestrians possess the right-of-way within crosswalks.

• Vehicles must stop and yield upon noticing pedestrians crossing highways within intersections irrespective of working signals.

• Pedestrians possess the right-of-way upon sidewalks extending across alleys.

• It’s illegal for vehicles not pointedly entering highways from alleys or parking lots to exceed fifteen miles per hour speed within 50 feet of intersection.

It’s crucial that if you’ve been hurt as a pedestrian that you recognize these rights. For instance, it’s a driver’s obligation to yield to pedestrians and if a driver acted negligibly causing you harm, a personal injury claim becomes logical because Illinois law inscribes that disregard of duty resulting in damages can form the foundation for negligence claims.

Furthermore, we plow relentlessly through multiple roadblocks clients might face when attempting to recover compensation for medical treatment expenses, lost wages due to missed work, pain and suffering and emotional catastrophe. However, with Carlson Bier on your side navigating the complex terrain of personal injury law becomes seamless via our assertive approaches which drive maximum settlements without compromising individual client needs at hand.

We prioritize complete transparency so you’re informed about and involved in every step taken towards vindication. Remember: inconsistencies are your enemy in a case like this—any fallacy may be held against you during settlement determinations or trial conclusions by insurance companies or defence lawyers notoriously famous for using such discrepancies as weapons aimed at diluting your credibility or undercounting undue assertion.

Hence it’s essential once an accident occurs that event recollection is as accurate as possible; photos should be taken of injuries sustained and vehicle damage incurred; document any potential witnesses accessible—every minor detail contributes significantly towards solidifying legal foothold during litigations.

At Carlson Bier we have embroidered unyielding commitment into our ethos because serious pedestrian accidents require serious legal responses backed by proficient expertise capable of holding liable parties accountable whilst seeking out bountiful recovery solutions granting peace back into victim lives intensely disrupted via pedestrian accidents surrounded within liability complexities tailored uniquely per each peculiar situation.

Above all else remember that justice isn’t just inherited—it’s sought by individuals entrusting us to carry their cause dedicatedly forward till its representation reflects ideal consequent success only achievable via relentless attempts born from principled hard work enveloped nonetheless within empathic understandings hosting stellar uncompromising expectations triumphed upon experience years delivering courageous victories paving avenues toward refined future safety.

Notable Illinois Appellate Wins

Moruzzi v. CCC Servs., Inc., 2020 IL App (2d) 190411, 171 N.E.3d 61
Background: Insured motorist filed action against insurer for declaratory judgment seeking construction of automobile insurance policy issued to insured and that was in effect when insured was injured by an underinsured driver. The Circuit Court, DuPage County, Bonnie M. Wheaton, J., granted the insurer's motions for summary judgment. Insured appealed.Holdings: The Appellate Court, Zenoff, J., held that:1 medical payments reduction clause in automobile insurance policy conflicted with underinsured motorist provisions so as to render reduction clause ambiguous, and thus medical payment benefits were deductible from insured's damages;2 law firm representing insured did not create common fund or common funds when it reached settlement with underinsured motorist, and thus law firm was not entitled to recover fees under common-fund doctrine; and3 collateral estoppel did not bar automobile insurers from litigating whether common-fund doctrine applied in insured motorist's declaratory judgment action.Affirmed in part and reversed in part.
Maier v. CC Servs., Inc., 2019 IL App (3d) 170640, 132 N.E.3d 795
Background: After insured, who was injured in automobile collision with another driver, recovered full liability limits of driver's policy, she filed amended complaint for declaratory judgment against her own automobile insurer, alleging that insurer breached contractual duty to pay for insured's damages in accordance with uninsured/underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage in insured's policy and that insurer acted in bad faith in denying insured such coverage. The Circuit Court, La Salle County, Troy D. Holland, J., granted the insurer's motion to dismiss claims as time-barred. Insured appealed.The Appellate Court ruled that neither the insurer nor the insured could add amended policy provisions to the court record. It was decided that the policy's requirement for a written arbitration demand applied to both uninsured and underinsured motorist claims. The court found that a letter from the insured's attorney to the insurer wasn't a valid arbitration demand nor a proof of loss to toll the statute of limitations. Finally, the insurer was permitted to use the defense based on the two-year statute of limitations period. The court's decision was affirmed.
Econ. Premier Assurance Co. v. Country Mut. Ins. Co., 2021 IL App (1st) 192364-U
Holding: The circuit court's order that granted defendant's motion for summary judgment and denied plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment was proper where defendant had no duty to indemnify its insured with respect to the underlying complaint and therefore plaintiff was not entitled to recover against defendant on its subrogation or unjust enrichment claims; affirmed.
Country Preferred Ins. Co. v. Westerheide, 2023 IL App (5th) 220343-U
Holding: The court affirmed judgment of the circuit court granting summary judgment in favor of the plaintiff where the defendant failed to make a written demand for arbitration within two years from the date of the accident as required by the underinsured provisions of the defendant's automotive insurance policy.
Country Mut. Ins. Co. v. Olsak, 2022 IL App (1st) 200695, 216 N.E.3d 291
In a complex legal case, an insurer sought to avoid defending or indemnifying a hockey player under a policy issued to the player's stepfather after the player was sued for assaulting his coach. The initial Circuit Court ruling favored the insurer, but the Appellate Court reversed this decision, leading to a protracted legal battle. Ultimately, the Appellate Court determined the insurer was liable only up to the $3 million policy limit and found the insurer's four-year delay in seeking a declaratory judgment to be reasonable. This case highlights important aspects of insurance litigation and policy limit liabilities.
Country Mut. Ins. Co. v. Durkin Elec. Co., Inc., 2022 IL App (1st) 210293-U, appeal denied, 199 N.E.3d 1187 (Ill. 2022)
Holding: The circuit court's order that denied plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment and found that defendant was an additional insured under the policy was proper. The circuit court's order that denied defendant's motion for summary judgment and found that plaintiff did not have a duty to defend or indemnify defendant under the policy was proper; affirmed.
Country Preferred Ins. Co. v. Groen, 2017 IL App (4th) 160028, 69 N.E.3d 911
Background: Uninsured motorist (UM) carrier brought action against insured for declaratory judgment that it owed no benefits since workers' compensation received by insured exceeded policy limits. The Circuit Court, Sangamon County, Chris Perrin, J., entered summary judgment in favor of the carrier. Insured appealed.Holdings: The Appellate Court, Harris, J., held that:1 employer's medical payments entitled carrier to setoff, and2 setoff clauses were enforceable.Affirmed.
Country Mut. Ins. Co. v. Frobish, 2021 IL App (3d) 190473-U
Holding: Allegations in the underlying complaint that a township employee caused property damage by excavating and digging out a ditch failed to impose a duty to defend under township employee's individual farm insurance policy.
Country Mut. Ins. Co. v. Jones, 2018 IL App (1st) 173154-U
Holding: The judgment of the circuit court of Cook County is affirmed; plaintiff is entitled to summary judgment on its claim for a declaratory judgment that it has no duty to defend or indemnify its insured against the underlying complaint because the loss claimed in the underlying complaint is subject to an exclusion. The court held that it would also enter judgment for plaintiff because the underlying complaint does not allege an “occurrence” causing bodily injury within the meaning of the policy.
Country Mut. Ins. Co. v. Schmitt, 2021 IL App (5th) 190173-U
Holding: The appellate court reversed and remanded the judgment of the circuit court where plaintiff had no duty to defend its insured and thus was not stopped from raising policy defenses to coverage for the underlying tort action contained in the amended declaratory action.
Country Mut. Ins. Co. v. Livorsi Marine, Inc., 222 Ill. 2d 303, 856 N.E.2d 338 (2006) (the late Keith Carlson)
Liability insurer brought action against insureds for a declaratory judgment based on failure to provide timely notice of lawsuits against them. The Circuit Court, Cook County, Stephen A. Schiller, J., entered judgment for the insurer. Insureds appealed. The Appellate Court, Wolfson, J., 358 Ill.App.3d 880, 295 Ill.Dec. 665, 833 N.E.2d 871, affirmed. Leave to appeal was granted.Holdings: The Supreme Court, Garman, J., held that:1 if the insurer did not receive reasonable notice of an occurrence or a lawsuit, the policyholder may not recover under the policy, regardless of whether the lack of reasonable notice prejudiced the insurer, overruling Rice v. AAA Aerostar, Inc., 294 Ill.App.3d 801, 229 Ill.Dec. 20, 690 N.E.2d 1067, and Cincinnati Insurance Co. v. Baur's Opera House, Inc., 296 Ill.App.3d 1011, 230 Ill.Dec. 624, 694 N.E.2d 593, and2 insured did not need to prove that it was prejudiced by delayed notice of lawsuits.Affirmed.
