Compassionate Defense Base Act lawyers you can count on in your time of need

Ms. Peake was the lawyer that handled my deposition on the 19th of June. She is from the law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. Ms. Peake really showed up for me. I was nervous and she calmed me down. She made me know that I was in good hands. She was strong and made a very nice impression. Bec...ause of how well my deposition went, I got a great result in my case. I cannot thank Ms. Peake and the whole team at Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco enough for what they did for me. It was like they were sent from God to take care of people injured overseas. For all my brethren working or injured in Afghanistan like me, I recommend you to this firm to handle your Defense Base Act case.

Defense Base Act handled in the best way possible by Rebecca.

My name is Lutfi, I'm from Macedonia and I used to work in Afghanistan. After I came back home I decided to work with Rebecca on my case in Defense Base Act against my employer. Rebecca has been so helpful and supportive during all the process and in the end she ended up winning my case for which I a...m forever grateful. The most amazing fact is that I have never met Rebecca in person since I'm here in Macedonia and shes there in the USA. However, she managed to work on this case so well, she has always been responsive whenever I needed answers and she has made the process so clear to me. Except being professional, Rebecca has been so kind, which has made this process much easier.

Confident Defense Base Act Lawyers Fought For My Rights

This law firm took great care of me and my case. I was injured while working overseas in Afghanistan as an embedded police mentor. I was referred to Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. Once I spoke with these lawyers, my mind was put at ease. They understand the Defense Base Act and knew exactly what to d...o and how to do it. I was referred to a very qualified physician who took care of my injuries. These lawyers pushed my case to a mediation and helped me get a very favorable settlement which allowed me to move on with my life. I am indebted to this law firm for all that they did for me. I highly recommend them to anyone injured on the job in Afghanistan, Iraq or anywhere around the world.

Injured in Afghanistan and Happy with my Defense Base Act Lawyers

I was injured in a bomb blast in Afghanistan. I was referred to the law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco through a friend. While standing on a rooftop in Afghanistan, I spoke with these lawyers on the telephone. They directed my case from that point forward. I worked primarily with Ms. Peake. S...he did a great job keeping me informed and fighting for my rights. I ultimately settled my case to my advantage and was able to move on with my life. I highly recommend this firm to anyone injured in Iraq or Afghanistan who is covered by the Defense Base Act.
