Top Defense Base Act lawyers for all cities including Hialeah Florida

I was injured in Iraq while working as a security contractor. I did not know the first thing about the Defense Base Act or my rights. I hired one lawyer that did not know what he was doing. Then I found this law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. These guys know this law. They turned my case aro...und and got me a great result. I wish I had found them from the beginning of my case. The staff is friendly and easy to work with. Ms. Peake was one of the lawyers who worked on my case. She was always there for me and made me feel very comfortable at all times. I highly recommend her and the firm to my colleagues working overseas in Iraq or Afghanistan. Get this law firm from the start and you will be happy that you did.
