I worked as a welder in the Pascagola Mississippi shipyard. These lawyers handled my Longshoreman case. I don’t know nothing about lawyers, but I can tell you this. These lawyers cared about me and my case and handled everything for me. They explained everything to me and they did a great job for... me on my Longshoreman case. I would recommend them to anyone injured in shipbuilding or doing longshoreman work.

Safety specialist working in Kuwait. This firm handled my Defense Base Act case. I can tell you that I felt that I had a whole team behind me and my case. This firm is professional and on point. They kept me informed and pushed my case hard. My lawyer flew out from Miami to Minnesota to handle my... mediation. They made me feel that I was important and that my case mattered. I have already referred my friend to this firm and will send many more. If I ever need a lawyer again, I am going right back to Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco! Thank you for what you did for me and my family!!

I have never hired a lawyer before. I can tell you that my experience with Mr. Mermell and his firm Gillis Mermell and Pacheco was first class. Very professional, very detailed...and great result. My case was a Defense Base Act case for injuries while working in Kabul, Afghanistan. Mr. Mermell and ...his firm get my top recommendation to contractors injured overseas.

I am a translator and I was injured in Iraq. I went to one lawyer who gave me bad advice and delayed my case. My friend told me to try this law firm. I am very grateful to my friend. This firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco turned my case around. Their advices were perfect and set me on the right ...course. I got a great result and it is mostly because of the work of this law firm. I have recommended several friends and co workers to this firm and will continue to do so, especially for DBA injuries overseas like mine.

I was injured in Iraq working in personal security. Mr. Mermell’s law firm handled my case. I knew I was in the right place from the initial interview, especially after talking to many other lawyers that did not sound confident. My case was handled professionally and my result was exceptional. Th...is firm is top notch for handling Defense Base Act cases.
