I live in Virginia and I hired the firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco to handle my Defense Base Act case. I was referred to this firm from a friend of mine who was injured overseas. I am thankful to my friend for sending me to this firm and I am extremely thankful to the firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pa...checo. Mr. Mermell and his staff, especially Liz and Maggie, are caring people who made me feel like I was their only client. They really did a terrific job for me. The result was beyond what I hoped for. I have already referred a friend to them and they are handling his case. I will continue to send them anyone I hear that needs a great lawyer, especially for injuries overseas. Thanks again to Mr. Mermell and his firm!

I hired Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco to take care of my defense base act case because my previous attorney (different law firm) didn’t care about my case and was not helpful. I was injured in Afghanistan and had serious injuries. Attorney Clifford Mermell , Attorney David Pacheco and Attorney Kara Olesk...ey are excellent lawyers. They took care of me and cared about my case. They made me feel very comfortable and that I was in good hands. I highly recommend them to anyone injured in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait or anywhere overseas.

Mr. Mermell and his firm handled my longshore case. I am grateful for the way my case was handled and the excellent result. I have already referred other longshoremen to Mr. Mermell. Mr. Mermell is a strong lawyer who speaks clearly and directly. He made me understand complicated things about my ...case and he calmed my mind about the way things would go. In the end, he did what he said he would do and I am very happy with the result.

The law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco is top class. They handled my Defense Base Act case so smoothly I am stunned. Right from the beginning, I was calmed down and impressed.

I am still impressed.
