My lawyers at Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco represented me in my Defense Base Act case. I was injured in Kuwait working security. I was skeptical to go to a lawyer, but my friend insisted for me to give these guys a try. I would recommend these lawyers to anyone injured in Kuwait. They came through f...or me big time. I still cannot believe what they did for me. I never expected to get the result I got. They fought hard for me and killed it at my mediation. I am forever indebted to this law firm, from the lawyers to the staff. I thank you all! God Bless!!

My lawyers are the best! That is all I need to say. They specialize in helping Longshoremen who are injured at the port. They helped me from the beginning to the end. They got me a great settlement and I got to go back to work. I cannot say enough good things about my lawyers at Gillis, Mermell ...& Pacheco. I recommend them to all longshoremen injured at the port.

I was skeptical about hiring a lawyer for my Defense Base Act case. I was injured in Afghanistan working as a crane operator. I thought I could just handle my case on my own. I was wrong! I got put through the wringer with my insurance company. I finally hired this law firm and got the help I ne...eded. I sincerely recommend this firm to anyone injured in Afghanistan. They far exceeded my expectations with the way the case was handled, the way they walked me through the minefields, the way they calmed my nerves and with the end result they got me.

When I returned from Afghanistan, I was like a fish out of water. I had never filed a claim and never heard of the Defense Base Act or Longshore Act. The insurance company wanted to settle my case quickly. My doctors told me I should probably see a lawyer. They told me one of their patients was r...epresented by Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. I called and spoke with a lawyer. He calmed my fears, explained my situation and gave me real peace of mind. He handled my case and took me to a mediation where we got an incredible settlement, much more than what the insurance company had offered me without my lawyer. Without hesitation, I strongly recommend this firm to anyone injured in Afghanistan or anywhere overseas.
