About Carlson Bier

Motorcycle Accident Lawyers in Wheeling Illinois

At Carlson Bier, we may not be located in Wheeling – but our exceptional knowledge and extensive experience make us your ideal partners tackling any Motorcycle Accident case in Illinois. The impact of such accidents can often be profound and life-changing, which is why you deserve attorneys who not only understand the legal landscape like the back of their hand but are also passionate about protecting and advocating for your rights.

Motorcycle Accidents typically involve unique dynamics that set them apart from other vehicular crashes; a minor misjudgment or even harsh weather conditions can result in devastating consequences for motorcyclists. Armed with this understanding, our dedicated team at Carlson Bier leaves no stone unturned when investigating each accident’s intricate variables to build an ironclad case solidly founded on educative, comprehensive detailing.

Factors we consider include:

• Weather conditions at the time of the accident.

• Possible vehicle defects or mechanical issues.

• Actions of other drivers involved.

• Roadway conditions, including any maintenance deficiencies.

These investigations allow the development of compelling arguments backed by robust evidence – an invaluable resource when it comes to seeking fair compensation for damages brought about through another party’s negligence or reckless behavior.

Understanding Motorcycle Accident laws could oftentimes feel like navigating a labyrinth without a map! Therein lies our strength as specialists; translating those laws into plain English and helping you comprehend how they apply directly to your situation. Are helmets required under Illinois law? What if I was partially at fault? What all counts towards damage recovery – both economic (like medical bills) and non-economic (like pain & suffering)? With precision and patience, we answer these pressing questions while addressing concerns efficiently to facilitate well-informed decision-making.

Another standout facet that sets Carlson Bier apart is our exemplary customer service ethos. From promptly responding to every query of yours to consistently communicating case updates, striving for top-notch satisfaction remains central to our operations. We firmly believe you shouldn’t have to shoulder this challenge alone. Hence, we stand committed to being at your side every step of your legal journey – relentlessly fighting for justice while you focus on recovery and rebuilding.

Crucially, it is essential to remember that time can be of the essence when filing a Motorcycle Accident claim; Illinois imposes a two-year Statute Of Limitation from the accident or discovery date, with rare exceptions. Proactive action often plays a vital role in securing desirable outcomes before deadlines.

At Carlson Bier, we’ve represented countless riders wrongfully injured across Illinois – winning them compensation they rightly deserved. The pool of our highly satisfied clients stands testimony to the empathy-driven, result-oriented approach our firm champions. Bank upon us for establishing liability effectively and safeguarding your interests fervently where others may falter.

Just like each motorcycle ride offers its own unique vistas and thrills, every accident case presents peculiar challenges and nuances requiring expert maneuvering. Trusting in Carlson Bier means teaming with seasoned professionals who thoroughly recognize this diversity – adapting strategies flexibly while never losing sight of their ultimate objective: your victory!

Quite possibly, you are reading this after having faced a taxing ordeal.

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.
