a.I've finished my work.
b.I've finished with my work.
c.I'm finished with my work.
All three are really saying the same thing.
The grammatical difference is that you have the present perfect of the verb "to finish" in A and B while in C you have the present simple of the verb "to be" plus the adjective finished.
It would be easier to understand if we used another example.
I've finished my work.
I'm satisfied with my work.
