About Carlson Bier

Personal Injury Lawyers in Dieterich Illinois

At Carlson Bier, we are devoted to representing victims of personal injury in Illinois. Our dedication stems from a deep-rooted belief that everyone deserves the strongest representation they can get and our team excels in providing such support. If you’ve been hurt due to someone else’s negligence or recklessness, our experienced personal injury attorneys are here for you.

Personal Injury law goes beyond just car accidents—it covers a wide range of mishaps that lead to physical harm or mental anguish caused by another party’s actions or lack of action. This can include workplace accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, dog bites, and even product liability cases among others. The aftermath of these injuries often leave individuals facing substantial medical bills and loss of income—challenges which one shouldn’t have to face alone after an accident caused by someone else’s fault.

As experts in this field:

• We understand the intricate laws surrounding Personal Injury.

• We know how insurance companies operate and will advocate on your behalf.

• We recognize the significant impact that these incidents have on a person’s life and work relentlessly to secure rightful compensation.

Our legal counsel extends beyond just court representations; it also incorporates knowledge-sharing so you make informed decisions at every step. In navigating through complex procedures with empathy and skill, we ensure effective management of your claims process while advocating for maximized compensation primarily based on three key factors:

1. Liability – In order to procure damages, one must prove that the defendant had a responsibility not to injure you but failed in fulfilling that duty;

2. Damages – These refer to both economic (medical expenses & lost wages) as well as non-economic damages (pain & suffering);

3. Solvency – It is crucial that defendants have adequate resources whether financial or insurance-related – otherwise there may be limitations in obtaining full compensations desired.

By entrusting us with your case at Carlson Bier, we provide professional advice rooted in years of experience, skilled negotiation with insurance companies, and vigorous courtroom representation if necessary. We acknowledge the criticality of timing in personal injury cases where statutes of limitations apply—therefore swift action is a necessity right from investigation to filing lawsuits—all handled keeping your best interests at heart.

In essence, our role is multifaceted; it spans educating you on the process, representing you during negotiations or trials, and ensuring that justice prevails by obtaining deserved compensation to aid your road to recovery. Our comprehensive approach encompasses medical examinations as well as financial evaluations for judicious compensation calculations.

At Carlson Bier, we stand for justice but more importantly – we stand for YOU. With each personal injury case we take on, our motivation remains unwavering: Enhancing lives by delivering results that matter. You can trust us in providing exceptional legal service while treating your case with the level of care it deserves.

By clicking on the button below, you are taking your first step towards finding out what your case may actually be worth—a reality that can often surprise claimants unaware of their full entitlements owing to injuries inflicted through no fault of their own. So go ahead—claim what’s rightfully yours today.

Taking prompt action after a personal injury not only secures evidence better but also leads timely identification of potential defendants; factors that play significant roles in eventually determining how much fair compensation should ideally entail. Don’t let valuable time slip past due to indecision – allow us at Carlson Bier to fight for your rights effectively and efficiently supporting you every step along this challenging path towards justified remuneration!

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.
