Fantastic DBA Lawyer

Rebecca was my lawyer for my DBA case following injury in Afghanistan. She was attentive and knowledgeable. After the insurance company turned the process in to such a headache, I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. I highly recommend her.

Top Texas Defense Base Act Lawyers with compassion and determination

Not only was attorney Peake extraordinary with her knowledge, but she was also very companionate with what I was going through. I didn't feel like just a number or just another client. She made me feel like family, she made me feel that she really cared about me. I was injured in a bomb blast in A...fghanistan and Ms. Peake handled my Defense Base Act case. She fought hard for me and never would accept no for an answer. I heard that she was this way even before she was my attorney, and then to see it in action was incredible. I have already referred other clients to this law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco and I will continue to do so based upon my treatment and results.

Best Virginia Defense Base Act attorneys

Let me be clear. This law firm is the best in the business. They answered all of my questions and always guided me in the right direction. From the lawyers to the staff this firm is solid through and through. I recommend then highly to anyone with a DBA case for injuries on the job in Afghanistan..., Iraq or anywhere overseas. My settlement was beyond what I expected and I was handled like a first class citizen throughout. My hat is off to this firm. Thank you guys for what you did for me!

Injured In Kuwait

First impressions are very telling, that's why Rebecca became my attorney. I was interested in another law firm but due to their indifference towards my concerns I decided to look else where for a DBA attorney. Rebecca made an immediate first impression which lead me to believe I made the right decis...ion to trust her judgment and knowledge in guiding me through all facets of my case.

My recommendation for knowledgeable DBA Defense Base Act lawyers is Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco

I switched law firms to go with Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco for my DBA workers compensation case. Man am I glad I did. This law firm took care of me from the beginning to the end. Ms. Peake handled many of my calls and comforted me in my time of need. I found her and the entire staff at Gillis, Mer...mell & Pacheco to be knowledgeable and comforting. I felt that I was taken care of from the first call to the end of the case. I highly recommend this law firm of Gillis, Mermell & pacheco to anyone injured in Afghanistan or anyone needing assistance with their Defense Base ACt case.
