I was injured while working overseas in Afghanistan. I was more than happy with the professional advise that I received from this law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. Ms. Peake is a tremendous lawyer and a credit to her field. Ms. Peake and her staff, especially Ms. Liz Mendez, were pivotal in t...he final resolution of my case. Their loyalty and commitment is paramount to their client. I trust her guidance implicitly and have no reservations to refer other workers injured overseas who need a top Defense Base Act lawyer. Ms. Peake coached me through the IMEs and through everything. She was with me each step of the way. I felt supported and had peace of mind through this very difficult process. I was lucky and happy to have this firm in my corner supporting me throughout my case.

I was injured in Afghanistan while working as an aviation supply tech. When I came back to the states, I found a DBA lawyer. He was terrible. Never called me back. I finally switched to the firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. Ms. Peake handled my case at the firm. She was great. She took my cal...ls and my emails and got back to me with answers to my questions. It was night and day compared to the lawyer I left. Ms. Peake kept me informed all along the way. She went to a mediation for me and was very strong and professional. She got me a result that was much better than I expected. I am telling my friends and co-workers that if you are injured on the job overseas and you need a great Defense Base Act lawyer, you need to contact Ms. Peake and the firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. Everyone at that firm was smart, responsive and on point. Great team. Thank you for your hard work and for taking care of me in my time of need.

Ms. Peake handled my Defense Base Act case with the assistance of her paralegal Liz Mendez. I can say that I am satisfied with both Ms. Peake and Liz. I want you to know personally that. I truly appreciate your professional assistance throughout this long and stressful case. The times when I was s...tressing over some matters you were there to say don't worry about it "I got this:" helped me out tremendously. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart...MayGod continue to bless you...remember all you have to do is ask for his help as I have when I was blown up in that vehicle in Afghanistan. Continue to be you. God Bless both of you. I will send anyone that is injured overseas to you guys. Thanks again!

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!
