About Carlson Bier

Personal Injury Lawyers in Grand Boulevard Illinois

At Carlson Bier, we are paramount advocates for those who have suffered from personal injuries due to the negligence or oversight of others. As a premier personal injury attorney group based in Illinois, we understand that the aftermath of such events can be overwhelming, heightening the need for knowledgeable legal services.

Personal Injury is a broad legal discipline covering numerous aspects. It typically refers to physical or emotional damage inflicted upon an individual due to someone else’s actions or lackadaisical approach towards their safety obligations. This umbrella term embraces various scenarios and encompasses several types of cases, from car accidents and defective products to premises liability claims and medical malpractice incidents.

Here are some key points about personal injury law:

– Personal injury law enables victims to seek compensation for damages incurred as a result of another party’s wrongdoing or negligent behaviors.

– Actions undertaken under this legal premise strive not only toward just reparations but also act as deterrence for potential wrongdoers.

– The extent of compensation depends on factors such as severity, nature of injury, associated costs like medical bills and lost wages due to absence from work.

– The plaintiff (the injured person initiating the lawsuit) must establish that the defendant (the person being sued) was negligent, causing harm.

Carlson Bier is markedly versed in these crucial facets of personal injury law. Our expert team adopts a meticulously strategic approach when it comes to representing our clients’ rights confidently and proficiently. We endeavor relentlessly against unjust outcomes and mediate favorable settlements whenever possible; however, taking a case all the way through trial isn’t beyond us if it serves our client’s best interests.

It is important whilst seeking reprisal in personal injury cases to entrust your plight with an adept law firm that not only comprehends each nut-and-bolt detail inherent in these complex lawsuits but can transform that understanding into actionable insight resulting in effective litigation strategies tailored uniquely per case. That’s where we come in.

The team at Carlson Bier lends its experience and expertise to the victims of personal injuries, fighting tooth-and-nail for their rightful compensation. We believe in bringing justice to the doorsteps of our clients, making us renowned amongst personal injury law firms across Illinois.

Exercise your right to reprieve swiftly but judiciously. Consider the following points:

– Time is not a forever ally: Starting legal proceedings as soon as possible after an accident increases your chances of obtaining vital evidence that may be perishable or get lost.

– No Fees Unless You Win: Like many personal injury attorneys, we work on contingency fees – meaning you don’t pay unless we win your case.

– Documentation matters: Preserve all medical records, expenses receipts coupled with any proof strengthening your lawsuit premise – it all adds up in fortifying your stance.

Intricate laws may wrap every corner of this landscape; thus, our team thrives on staying updated about legal advancements and modifying strategies accordingly. Our attorney group handles each case distinctly drawn from thorough research supported by years of experience dealing with diverse cases falling under this umbrella term.

Navigating through such testing times necessitates seasoned counsel able to steer recovery efforts while ensuring due process of law. Let Carlson Bier guide you through these choppy waters securing a settlement deserving for the mental, emotional and physical distress caused by an incident that wasn’t your fault! Finally yet critically important—serving those inflicted with personal injuries isn’t just a profession for us; it’s a committing vow!

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.
