I was injured while working in security in Afghanistan. My brother was a client of this firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. He recommended that I bring my DBA case to them. I was impressed from my first call right up to the last call. This firm took care of me for my medicals and made sure I recei...ved proper compensation. In the end, they got me a great settlement. If I had to do it again, I would only go to this firm for my Defense Base Act case.

I had a very difficult DBA case. My case made me a nervous wreck. Somehow, my lawyer was able to calm me down and get me to see things straight. I am truly appreciative of the way my Defense Base Act case was handled. I am extremely happy with the result and I am recommending the law firm of Gill...is, Mermell & Pacheco to any contractor injured in Iraq or Afghanistan. This firm will take your case and streer you in the right direction.

I was recommended to the firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco by a friend who was a client of the firm. He told me they specialize in longshoremen cases. I feel grateful to my friend and to my lawyers as my case was handled very smoothly. I received my compensation and medical care for three years an...d then when I was ready my lawyers got me a great settlement. I am recommending my friends who work at Port of Miami to this law firm for any injuries on the job.

Mr. Mermell and his staff treated me like family. I am very grateful for what he did for me and my family with regard to my Longshore case. I was injured at the Port of Miami. The head of our union sent me to Mr. Mermell and his firm. I am now bringing a friend of mine to the firm because of how ...great they did for me.

I injured my right shoulder while working in Afghanistan. I did not even know what the Defense Base Act was. I found this law firm on the internet. I was treated with great respect by my lawyer and all of the staff. I especially liked working with Ms. Liz. This firm took care of me and my family. T...hey got me through a very hard time. My case was not easy. In the end, I got a great result. I highly recommend this firm to any contractors injured overseas.
