Chicago Plasterer and Cement Mason Injury Lawyers

The legal team at GWC Injury Lawyers is known throughout Illinois as one of the most successful workers’ compensation and personal injury practices in the state. Since 1977, we have recovered more than $2 billion in damages on behalf of our clients and their families.

Over the past four decades, we have developed a highly sophisticated construction accident practice. Our highly skilled lawyers and support staff can help construction workers obtain the workers’ compensation benefits to which they are entitled. We also routinely file third-party claims against non-employers that may have contributed to a workers injury.

Our workers’ compensation lawyers represent all types of building trades union workers, including members of the Operative Plasterers and Cement Masons International Association of the United States and Canada.

The Operative Plasterers and Cement Masons International Association of the United States and Canada has represented cement masons and trained plasterers for more than 150 years. Plaster and concrete are some of the most important construction materials in America, and the goal of the OPCMIA is to make sure that skilled craftsmen remain safe at work.

OPCMIA members work on a variety of construction projects and jobsites, including:

  • Commercial and industrial properties
  • Concrete repair
  • Curb and gutter repair and construction
  • Exterior insulation finish systems
  • Fireproofing
  • Decorative and flatwork concrete
  • Highways and roads
  • Historical restoration
  • Residential properties

Plaster and cement are highly dangerous materials when handled improperly. This is why the OPCMIA works to train plasterers and cement masons to meet the safety demands of this increasingly complex industry.

The attorneys at GWC Injury Lawyers are passionate about helping injured building tradespeople get the compensation they deserve. We have helped thousands of workers injured on job sites in cement accidents, ladder falls, collapses, and even on-the-job car accidents.

Although most workplace injuries and illnesses are covered under workers’ compensation benefits, Illinois workers’ compensation law contains many traps designed to make benefits hard to get. Our attorneys know how to effectively handle even the most complex workers’ compensation cases to make sure our clients maximize their recovery.

One last thing, i have Had success referring GWC to my Coworker's and friends and also Family too.and I always will !Thank You GWC .

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.
