4.9 average over 248 reviews
A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Carlson Bier charge?
Carlson Bier publishes a contingency fee, which means the fee is a share of what the case recovers and there is nothing to pay if it recovers nothing. The rate itself is not published, so ask for it in writing, along with how case expenses are handled and whether they come out of the recovery before or after the fee. The first consultation is free, which is the place to ask.
Does Carlson Bier offer a free consultation?
Yes. Carlson Bier publishes a free initial consultation. The intake line is published as open around the clock.
Where does Carlson Bier have offices?
Carlson Bier publishes one office, in Chicago. Addresses and the Google listing behind each one are on this profile under Offices.
Who are the attorneys at Carlson Bier?
Carlson Bier names six attorneys on its own site, and each is listed on this profile with the page we read them from. They have not been checked against a state register: Illinois does not publish an attorney register we can query, so licensure is not verified here. The state's own attorney search is the place to check it.
What has Law Firm Listings verified about Carlson Bier?
Carlson Bier scores 45 and sits at Verified. Passed: website and footprint. Could not be answered from any public source and therefore counts neither for nor against the firm: licensure, discipline and entity registration. Every row of the scorecard above names where the value came from and when it was read. Nothing on this profile was supplied by the firm for payment, and no placement here can be bought.
