Clifford Robert Mermell

I was referred to Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco law firm by a co worker. Mr. Mermell worked on my Defense Base Act case. I was injured while working in security in the Middle East. Mr. Mermell and his firm worked hard for me and came through for me in the end. I got a great settlement and got the ins...urance company off my back. What a relief. I am able to move on with my life. I recommend this firm to workers injured in the Middle East or anywhere overseas.

Mr. Mermell has a great law firm for representing civilian contractors and expats like me for when we get injured while working oversees. This was my first time suing an insurance company. Man did they give me a hard time. They put me through the grinder twice. But Mr. Mermell and his law firm, e...specially Gladis and Mason, hung in there and fought them at their own game. Mr. Mermell knows all of the tricks and games they play and he straightened them out for me. I got my benefits and I got a settlement that was about 7 times what Ithought it would be. I am recommending Mr. Mermell and his firm to any expats injured in Afghanistan or anywhere overseas.

I was injured while working at the Bagram Air Field in Afghanistan. I had a bad back injury that required surgery. My doctor released me to return to work prematurely and my insurance company cut off all of my benefits. I was referred to this law firm by a co worker. This firm fought so hard for ...me and finally won my case and got me what I deserved. I was helpless without Mr. Mermell and his firm. I would have gotten nothing without his help. These insurance companies are ruthless and treated me horribly. Thank God that there are lawyers out there that can set them straight. I thank Mr. Mermell and his firm for everything they did to win my case and get me what I deserved. I am going out of my way to notify all of my overseas working colleagues that if they are injured, they need to go to this firm where they will get the help they need.

I live in Alabama and I was told by a friend to hire these lawyers in Miami. I am glad that I listened to my friend. These lawyers at Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco know how to work a Defense Base Act case so that their client wins. I was up against an insurance company that didn't care about me and di...dn't want to pay my claim. These lawyers made them pay so I got what I deserved in the end. It took a while but they fought hard for me and never gave up. In the end, I feel like I won and got what I deserved.

I hired Mr. Mermell for my DBA case and cannot say enough good things about him, or his staff. I was, as are many, overwhelmed by the DBA and all the things you have to do to get anyone to give you a straight answer. It seems like they want to blame you for being hurt. As soon as Mr. Mermell started... working on my case, all the song and dance routines I was getting just stopped. I don't know about you but when I was told how seriously I was really injured it shocked me. With him on the case I started getting the right medical treatment and no longer had to talk to the insurance company. He takes the time to talk to you and explain what is going on, it really lowers your stress level. My recommendation is if you have anything to do with the DBA is to call him right away. Two people I know wouldn't listen and now they are both sorry and wished they had used him. Make your life a little simpler, call him and you just worry about recovery, not red tape.
