About Carlson Bier

Personal Injury Lawyers in Bolingbrook Illinois

Welcome to the online home of Carlson Bier, your trusted Personal Injury Attorney Group based in Illinois. Our firm indubitably understands that sustaining a personal injury can be an overwhelming experience, so our commitment is unwavering – we relentlessly strive for our clients’ rights and reparations.

Personal injury law, also known as tort law, allows injured persons to go to civil court and receive a legal remedy (damages) for all losses resulting from an accident or other incidents. The purpose is to allow the injured party to return financially to where they were before suffering harm. Damages include factors such as medical costs, lost income due to inability to work, emotional anguish experienced because of the incident, etc.

Our firm specializes in various facets within personal injury cases including:

– Auto Accidents: If you’ve been hurt due to another driver’s negligence on the road, we diligently work hard towards securing fair compensation.

– Slip & Falls: In instances where a property owner’s negligence results in accidents causing injuries, we assiduously pursue rightful compensation.

– Medical Malpractice: When healthcare professionals cause damage or further ailment through their negligence it necessitates suitable recompense; this too falls within our area of expertise.

– Wrongful Deaths: We fight with undeniable compassion and vigor for families grieving wrongful death attributable to someone else’s recklessness.

You should never have to pay for someone else’s reckless mistakes. This is why at Carlson Bier, we fight tirelessly ensuring lawful justice prevails while advocating comprehensively for each case taken up by us. There are common defenses used by at-fault parties including contributory negligence implying some measure of blame should be placed on the plaintiff as well and assumption of risk which maintains that plaintiffs knowingly put themselves in harm’s way. But rest assured; with us as your representative resorting back into safety becomes reality despite whatever may come.

While navigating through the aftermath of a loss isn’t easy, choosing Carlson Bier is a step towards advocates who truly care about your plight and will work meticulously to bring you the justice deserved. Our firm upholds a reputation for its relentless dedication, expertise in Personal Injury cases and commitment to client welfare.

You might question whether our services would be affordable? Allow us to ensure that we operate on a ‘No Win, No Fee’ basis simply meaning unless we win compensation for you, there will be no charges levied. Thus alongside perceiving your pain points vis-a-vis mental, emotional and financial aspects – our attorneys bear the brunt of legal finance increasing relief quotient further.

However complex or simple your case may seem; taking immediate steps after an incident plays a crucial role in accumulating strong evidence required during lawsuits. This involves capturing photographs/videos of accident scenes or injuries suffered; getting timely medical attention even when injuries don’t seem severe initially as these records help build solid grounds too while we navigate through claims process with desired efficiency and effectivity.

Carlson Bier holds years of experience dealing with insurance companies fighting doggedly for clients’ rightful damages. We are cognizant of tactics utilized by such firms to offer lowest possible settlements but equipped adequately in combating this so that rightful legally due recipients attain full value judiciously.

Remember that time is especially crucial here – Most states have enacted statutes, limiting lengthily periods available for filing personal injury lawsuits thus it’s advantageous initiating actions promptly once incidents occur ensuring rights remain thoroughly safeguarded rather than letting these fade away unwittingly over time-frame lapses- also known as statute-barred specifications.

A detailed review of your case coupled with thorough understanding around unique circumstances attached offers us leverage strategically whilst dealing equally efficiently against large insurance firms typically resistant offering fair settlements leaving people often intimidated with sheer challenge ahead.

It’s important to emphasize on how vital having proficient lawyers like us representing you turns out under most daunting circumstances – not only do we exact tangible relief via monetary compensations rightful but also on psychological fronts by taking over complexities thereby reinstating semblance of normalcy during times fraught with uncertainty.

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)

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.
