About Carlson Bier

Personal Injury Lawyers in Lombard Illinois

At Carlson Bier, we are dedicated to guiding you through the complex terrain of personal injury law with expertise, integrity and care. We understand that after experiencing an unfortunate event that led to a personal injury, things may become overwhelming. You might be questioning what your rights are, how to claim compensation, or possibly even who is genuinely fighting for your best interest. At our firm based in Illinois, we bring clarity to these confusions and provide sound advice rooted in experience and knowledge.

Personal Injury Law covers incidents where one’s negligence causes harm or suffering to another person. Some examples include car accidents, work-related injuries, slip-and-fall accidents, medical malpractice among others. The magnitude of the damage often transcends mere physical pain but can also show up as emotional trauma and financial strain on families. Hence understanding your legal standing goes beyond knowing what injured you but extends into comprehending how those damages should be estimated for adequate compensation.

• Compensation awarded usually accounts for three main aspects: medical costs incurred due to the injury; wage loss during recovery period; pain and suffering which entails emotional distress tied to the incident.

• The term ‘negligence’ carries significance within Personal Injury Law – it pinpoints who bears responsibility for the accident. Evidence of negligence needs thorough collection and careful presentation – tasks that require professional handling.

• Legal time limitations exist within which claims must be initiated post-incident. Failing this could result in losing rights over rightful compensation.

As an established law office in Illinois catering specifically to Personal Injury cases for years now, we at Carlson Bier have crafted successful strategies towards navigating these significant factors involved in asserting your claim effectively.

Building a strong case lies at the heart of securing deserved reparations following an unfortunate incident causing personal injury. Information fidelity is key here – being transparent about details pertaining to the incidence paves way for optimum legal representation by us on behalf of you.

Effective advocacy implies abiding by all relevant legal protocols while ensuring that the client’s best interest remains at fore. At Carlson Bier, our aim is always to secure justice for you. With strategic planning and aggressive negotiation we push for the maximum possible compensation permitted by Illinois law.

In order to gauge a clear picture of how strong your claim might be, and the prospective money value attached to it – you might have many questions. How much can medical costs stretch out as? Is there a cap on pain-and-suffering compensations in Illinois? How do I decide whose fault was it?

Let us answer those queries for you! Our attorneys are equipped with the expertise that matches your needs; ready to discuss these aspects regarding Personal Injury Law and provide valuable guidance tailored specifically towards your case.

Competent representation matters! This is particularly inherent in personal injury cases where circumstances might not only involve physical recovery but also emotional recuperation from trauma suffered due to someone else’s negligence. Stakeholders could range from insurance adjusters grappling on details of accident scenes to hostile defense attorneys pushing against rightful claims.

At times like these, standing alone may appear daunting but remember – together we stand stronger! If faced with unfortunate circumstances leading up-to a potential lawsuit involving personal injury; remember – You don’t just need lawyers…You need partners!

We at Carlson Bier believe in compassionate and cooperative legal service – guiding clients through their rights, advocating determinedly during trials, negotiating aggressively when necessary, fighting relentlessly for justice served.

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.
