About Carlson Bier

Motorcycle Accident Lawyers in Bartelso Illinois

At Carlson Bier, we comprehend the immense challenges you face after enduring a motorcycle accident. Our Illinois-based law firm is dedicated to prioritizing our clients’ needs and fighting for their legal rights. Committed and experienced, our personal injury attorneys are seasoned in handling some of the toughest motorcycle accident claims.

Accidents involving motorcycles often lead to severe injuries or fatalities due primarily to motorcyclists’ vulnerability compared to drivers encased in vehicles. Even with helmets and protective gear, damage can be substantial due to factors such as high speed and impact upon collision. Victims may experience injuries like concussion or traumatic brain injury (TBI), spine injuries, road rash, fractures, internal bleeding or organ damages; all leading towards hefty medical bills and long periods of recovery time.

Driving negligence is frequently at the heart of these accidents – distracted driving, speeding, alcohol/drug influence, reckless maneuvers are just examples amongst other perpetrators that highlight irresponsible road behavior. Other causes could include poor road conditions or defective motorcycle parts. It’s crucial to understand that if your accident was instigated by someone else’s negligence or deliberate misconduct, you’re entitled to demand compensation for your harms.

As meticulous investigators following an incident report, Carlson Bier takes pride not merely at obtaining quick settlements but also diving deep into details ensuring comprehensive investigations:

• Determining Fault: We scrutinize every minute detail about the event including photographic evidence, eye witness testimonies thus factoring various elements such as driver behavior or defective vehicle components.

• Accident Reconstruction: When necessary we enlist forensic experts who aid us in reconstructing accidents which provide essential facts during proceedings.

• Medical Documentation: We collaborate with medical professionals ensuring they accurately communicate the severity of your injuries so insurance companies cannot understate them.

• Negotiating on Your Behalf: Our lawyers will negotiate tirelessly with insurance adjusters making sure you get fair representation.

Once an accurate estimate has been determined regarding non-economic losses – pain, emotional distress; and economic – medical expenses, repair costs and lost wages; your assigned attorney will then promptly seek to negotiate with those responsible.

The Motorcycle Accident Law in Illinois mandates a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims commencing from the day of the accident. However, every case is unique and might encompass exceptions – another reason why it’s beneficially important that you solicit our expertise right away following an incident. This allows us to begin collecting detailed evidence swiftly, ensuring optimum representation of your claim within laid legal time frames.

Our primary goal at Carlson Bier is to provide outstanding service while pursuing maximum compensation for your injuries or losses due to a motorcycle accident. We undertake cases on contingency basis which means we charge ONLY if we win ABSOLUTELY NOTHING if we don’t! We represent victims not just against at-fault drivers but also confront fierce insurance companies safeguarding YOUR interests instead.

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.

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.
