Illinois SEIU Member Injury Lawyers

At the law offices of GWC Injury Lawyers, our workers’ compensation lawyers represent more union workers than any other law firm in Illinois. As one of the state’s largest and most accomplished personal injury law firms, we understand what it takes to bring a successful workers’ compensation claim. We thoroughly investigate every case and make sure that we maximize our clients’ recovery.

The attorneys at GWC Injury Lawyers have represented thousands of injured Illinois workers. Since beginning our workers’ compensation practice in 1977, we have recovered more than $2 billion on behalf of injured workers and their families, including members of the Service Employees International Union.

The Service Employees International Union is one of the largest unions in the country. There are 2.1 million SEIU members, making the union the biggest representative of healthcare workers and property services industry employees as well as the second-largest representative of public service workers.

This highly diversified union represents a large variety of workers and trades, including:

  • Doctors
  • Child care providers
  • Government employees
  • Janitors
  • Mass transit drivers
  • Nurses
  • Nursing home workers
  • Teachers
  • Security officers
  • Window cleaners

The SEIU also bills itself as the nation’s most diverse union. Its membership is 55 percent female and 40 percent ethnic and racial minorities, and it has the largest number of immigrant union members in the country.

The legal team at GWC Injury Lawyers is passionate about helping injured SEIU members. We have represented union workers who suffered a variety of workplace injuries, including repetitive motion injuries, slip-and-fall injuries, broken bones, crushing injuries, and herniated discs, among others.

It is important to speak with an experienced workers’ compensation attorney before filing a workers’ comp claim because Illinois law requires workers to follow very specific steps to receive benefits. Any mistake in filing a workers’ compensation claim can result in the worker losing his or her right to recover all benefits.

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.
