Harris Elliott of GWC Represented me in a Workman's compensation case. Not only was he very diligent, he was also very patient.

And took the time to make sure I understood everything that was going on and every procedure. Harris answered all emails, calls, and texts quickly and professionally. His assistant, Daisy was also very professional and when Harris was away from the office she did just as well as he did. She's the best!! If I every get hurt again, He will be the first person I call!!

Lou Cairo and GWC were the best to me and got me the maximum amount of compensation for my accident. Kate Kirwan Searls was my attorney and I could not have asked for better representation.

Kate killed it and got me what I deserved and then some. She was prompt, detailed, and excellent at communicating with me throughout the whole process. I will only be using GWC for any future cases, as well as only recommending them to any friends and family. If you want your case handled right, contact GWC!

Mr. Harris Elliott is an amazing attorney! He helped me with my WC case and kept me updated throughout the process until everything was taken care of.

He is very reliable and responded to my emails or phone calls within 24 hours. Upfront and helpful, Mr. Elliott explained everything in detail and made the process a better learning experience for me. I am really grateful for his services, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a great friendly lawyer!

The whole team at GWC was amazing. Harris took on my case and answered all emails, calls, and texts quickly and professionally.

Everyone who I came into contact at the firm was also great. If I ever get injured again they will be the first people that I call.

GWC went above and beyond to help resolve an almost 5 year case. The financial and emotional frustration we endured after my husband's car accident was met with empathy and urgency for resolution.

Lou was professional and kept in constant communication throughout the entire process. He treated us like family and never gave up on fighting for a fair and prompt resolution. Our lives may be forever changed but Lou and his team made the utmost commitment to make sure we were taken care of. GWC has the best staff and I am positive if we had used another firm our financial compensation would not have been even close to what Lou & his team secured for us. We are forever grateful and would recommend GWC to anyone in a similar situation. Thank you again for changing our lives for the better.
