Construction injury cases are rarely simple.  In fact, more often than not, they are complex, both legally and factually.  They demand comprehensive knowledge not only of the applicable law, but also of the construction industry and construction operations.  In this respect, you can be assured of quality representation when you call GWC.

GWC is often called the construction injury law firm. Building trades unions and organizations often turn to the lawyers at GWC when a member is injured and GWC has been honored with designations by many of the states largest unions. No other law firm is more well respected by its adversaries and no other law firm represents more injured union construction workers than GWC.

Every one of GWC’s injury lawyers has a solid working knowledge of how construction sites run and how particular operations are carried out.  Due to our vast collective experience with construction-related injury matters, we are also able to readily identify important issues in a given case, such as the legal theories of liability that should be pursued and the entities that should be named as defendants in the litigation.  Our unique ability to recognize and deal with these aspects of your case in the early stages of the litigation is a significant reason why we consistently obtain such favorable results for our construction worker clients.

The best example of the exceptional success that GWC has had in construction negligence litigation is our extensive experience in handling both major and minor cases for members of virtually every organized union in Chicago and the state of Illinois.  Our union client list includes Carpenters, Electricians, Laborers, Sheet Metal Workers, Painters, Operating Engineers, Tile Setters, Teamsters, Elevator Constructors, and Roofers, to name only a few.  We also maintain close ties to Illinois legislators to remain current on the often-changing construction negligence laws as we continually strive to protect our clients’ interests.  

If a construction injury should strike you or a family member, work with the law firm trusted by members of virtually every trade involved in construction: GWC.
