About Carlson Bier

Pedestrian Accident Lawyers in White Hall Illinois

Established within the vibrant legal landscape of Illinois, Carlson Bier is notably adept in advocating for those affected by pedestrian accidents. As a personal injury law practice, we have honed our expertise to represent individuals who find themselves victims of such unfortunate incidents. Pedestrian accidence incidence is an often-overlooked issue; however, at Carlson Bier, we appreciate that when things go wrong on our pathways and crossings, the impact can indeed be life-altering.

At its core, a pedestrian accident involves any incident where an individual on foot collides with a moving vehicle or object causing harm or injury. The severity of these accidents cannot be underestimated; they range from minor injuries to permanent disability, and in some tragic instances even leading to fatalities. Essentially, the extent of damage from pedestrian accidents underlines their inherent seriousness and underscores why legal address is critical.

• Falling objects

• Road obstructions

• Dog attacks

• Slip-and-falls

Those are just a few examples of scenarios that qualify as pedestrian mishaps in broad terms.

Our team at Carlson Bier thrives by driving conversations around compensation for pedestrian accident victims because each case has its unique circumstances requiring detailed attention. While there’s much ado about culpability and liability among motorists who hit pedestrians, it’s less known that fault can also lie with entities charged with maintaining safe roads—local authorities could bear responsibility for hazardous conditions leading to these accidents.

In matters surrounding reckless drivers who injure pedestrians through negligence like over speeding or failing to heed road signs: one may envision straightforward litigation processes led mainly by police reports and witness testimonies- but this isn’t necessarily so! Do not forget–it’s essential not only aiming for justice but securing full compensation too—an aspect some claimants neglect due to inadequate representation or deficient understanding.

With considerable years practicing personal injury law under our belt at Carlson Bier speaks volume about our midas touch in dealing with Pedestrian accident cases. In essence, we go beyond simply connecting events to injuries. We delve deeply into understanding our clients’ plight on a personal level—this involves the physical pain, emotional distress, and far-reaching effects suffered in your livelihood and social relationships. That way, we’re empowered to argue your case forcefully from an informed standpoint.

Engaging us offers you more than just representing your rights diligently—it’s also about latching onto legal allies who bring empathy to the courtroom’s adversarial environment; those who’ll face off insurance companies potentially withholding fair compensation amounts from their policyholders simply because they can! At Carlson Bier, this is precisely what we excel in doing: standing up for pedestrian victims genuinely so that justice isn’t just perceived but ascertained!

By all standards, the implications of pedestrian accidents are tremendous—injuries encountered could devastate economically and health-wise; recovery processes may be slow spanning years even with proper medical care—all while everyday lives equally reel under immense pressure as bills pile up. It’s these dynamics that Carlson Bier considers when advancing claims ensuring settlements commensurate not only with immediate damages but considering long-lasting impacts too.

So why continue shouldering these burdens alone? Leverage our professional intervention to light up every dark corner clouding your rightful claim path—it could mean turning around an otherwise dire circumstance into a hopeful future no matter what happened yesterday or today!

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.
