Rigorous Investigation And Results-Driven Representation For Accident Victims

At Byron Carlson Petri & Kalb, LLC, our attorneys have decades of experience representing victims of car crashes as well as trucking, motorcycle and pedestrian accidents. We get to know our clients and thoroughly investigate the unique circumstances of each motor vehicle accident case we handle, in order to:

  • Develop a full picture of all causal factors in an accident, ranging from another driver’s traffic violation or distracted driving behavior to problems with traffic signals, a railroad crossing or road maintenance
  • Establish the full harmful impact of all injuries sustained, including taking depositions from treating doctors and creating video documentation of injuries that require costly treatment and rehabilitation, result in other lost income and may be permanently life altering
  • Determine all responsible parties and work to maximize all sources of potential financial recovery for you, through in-depth insurance analysis and rigorous case building for a possible trial

Dynamic, Trial-Proven Madison County Car Crash Injury Attorneys

Led in our personal injury work by proven trial lawyer Eric J. Carlson, our firm’s experience extends across the spectrum of commercial vehicle accidents, wrecks involving uninsured motorists, and various forms of catastrophic negligence on Illinois and Missouri roadways. We have earned numerous multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements for the injured and for families left behind after tragic fatal accidents.

In 2003, attorneys from our firm negotiated a $4 million settlement for a woman who suffered life-changing leg injuries when hit by a bus in a crosswalk. In 2010, we took a trucking accident case all the way through trial to earn a $3.3 million jury verdict for a man catastrophically injured when a tractor-trailer crossed a highway median.

These and other cases demonstrate our commitment to building the strongest case possible for each client we serve. To put a compassionate, dynamic St. Louis or Edwardsville car accident attorney to work handling your potential claim, request a free consultation today.
