About Carlson Bier

Personal Injury Lawyers in Warrenville Illinois

Carlson Bier is a reputable personal injury law firm with an exceptional track record in Illinois, offering world-class legal representation, support and resources to those who have suffered due to the negligence of others. We firmly believe that victims should be rightfully compensated for their physical pain, emotional trauma, loss of income and other damages that result from accidents or acts of negligence.

Personal Injury is a broad sector within the legal sphere. It concerns itself primarily with injuries inflicted on an individual due to another party’s recklessness or disregard for safety. Legal recourse can be sought in cases like vehicular accidents, work-related injuries, premises liability (slip-and-fall cases) and medical malpractice among many others. When such incidents transpire resulting in personal harm or suffering, Carlson Bier is committed to helping you receive comprehensive legal advice and robust representation.

Understanding key aspects of personal injury claims can greatly empower you during these challenging circumstances:

• Timely action – There are certain timelines within which you need to act after sustaining an injury; this period is known as “Statute Of Limitations”. In Illinois it’s typically two years from the date of the accident.

• Fault Assessment – Identifying the at-fault party forms a critical part of any PI claim. This could range from individuals (like reckless drivers), corporate entities (such as businesses not fulfilling safety protocols) or public bodies failing in their duty of care.

• Damage Calculation – Understanding what constitutes compensable damage under Illinois Personal Injury Law is crucial for filing substantial claims. This includes medical expenses, lost wages, disability adjustments and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.

• Insurance Negotiations – Dealing with insurance companies often requires expert negotiation skills since they aim at minimizing payout amounts.

With decades-long experience handling myriad types of cases falling under Personal Injury Law in Illinois, our lawyers at Carlson Bier provide resilient advocacy while steadfastly pursuing rightful compensation for your losses. They safeguard your interests, making sure you are not left facing overwhelming circumstances alone.

We recognize the overwhelming effect that medical bills, lost wages and future uncertainties can have on injury victims and their families. Even more so when these hardships were caused by someone else’s negligence. That’s why we handle each case with utmost empathy, offering compassionate legal counsel throughout the claim process.

At Carlson Bier, our professional prowess is seamlessly blended with genuine personalized attention because to us, your claims are more than just cases – they represent real people tangibly affected by unfortunate incidents. Our motivation to tirelessly fight for your compensation is deeply rooted in this understanding.

The laws surrounding personal injuries typically tend to be complex and daunting for common citizens struggling to navigate their way through a difficult period post-incident. Moreover, the clock starts ticking from the moment an accident occurs as far as filing a lawsuit goes; leaving no room for delay or error. Hence having skilled attorneys like those at Carlson Bier becomes instrumental in successfully securing fair restitution for damages suffered due to others’ irresponsibility or disregard for safety norms.

In Illinois’s arenas of Personal Injury Law, where resilience matters as much as resourcefulness, choosing Carlson Bier equates choosing unwavering dedication layered insurmountably strong defense strategies.

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.
