Tough Defense Base Act lawyer fought hard and got me a great result

Ms. Peake is all business. She is focused and to the point. She is tough and spearheaded my case to an excellent and timely conclusion. I recommend her and the law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco to anyone injured in Afghanistan or Iraq under the Defense Base Act.

Caring and Competent Defense Base Act Attorney

Rebecca Peake assisted me with my Defense Base Act claim. I had a terrible injury in Afghanistan. I started with a bad lawyer that did not know what he was doing. Once I switched to Ms. Peake and the law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco, my case got on track. They brought my case to a hearing re...garding all of the benefits that were denied to me for the past six months while I was with the other lawyer. They got me a favorable recommendation from the OWCP and then got me all of the benefits that were denied. That relieved me of so much anxiety and financial pressure that I cannot begin to tell you how amazing that was. These lawyers cared about me and took the time to do things right and explain it all to me when I was going crazy. Ms. Peake helped to calm me down in my crisis and helped me see things right. When I was ready, these lawyers settled my case and got me a fantastic result. I recommend that anyone injured in Afghanistan or Iraq contact these lawyers right from the start. These lawyers know what they are doing and they do it with compassion.
