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.
