I had no idea what to expect regarding my Defense Base Act case. I had low expectations of what I would be able to accomplish with a lawyer rather than doing it on my own. After speaking with Rebecca the first time, I was very happy with the advice I was given and happy with the presumed outcome. ...I was walked through the case step by step continuously throughout the entire process. The final outcome was by far more than I expected. And I would wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca and the whole firm of Gillis, Mermell and Pacheco to anyone who has any questions regarding their rights pertaining to injuries overseas.

My experience with Rebecca was phenomenal. She was very professional and everything that she advised was up to par and I could not ask more from a lawyer. Best advise ever. She handled my Defense Base Act case for injuries in Afghanistan. I recommend her to others injured in Afghanistan or anywhe...re overseas.

From the very outset, Rebecca was honest, constantly in touch, kept me updated on every last detail, from emails to phone calls. I felt that I was her only client. Nothing was too much trouble. She always answered my questions promptly and honestly. I can honestly say hand on my heart that I feel... Rebecca did an absolute superb job for me and my family and I can confidently recommend her and the firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco to any colleague injured in Afghanistan or Iraq who needs a great Defense Base Act lawyer.
