David Pacheco

I hired this law firm for my Defense Base Act case for my injury that occurred in Afghanistan. Prior to this law firm, I was with another law firm that really did not help me. They did not return my calls and I did not feel comfortable there. All that changed once I spoke with Ms. Liz and David Pa...checo at Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco. The entire staff there made me feel comfortable and taken care of in my time of need. I knew I was in good hands from the beginning and it was true all the way through to the end. I recommend this law firm to anyone with a workers compensation case or a defense base act dba workers compensation case.

Mr. Pacheco is quite a character. He is very likeable and he kept the stress of this case off of my shoulders. When I was done speaking with him each time he took my calls, I was calmed down and felt de-stressed. He told me honestly like it was, and he did what he said he was going to do. I canno...t thank him enough. I recommend Mr. Pacheco and the law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco to anyone injured in Afghanistan or Iraq. The lawyers at Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco work as a team and know how to maximize results for Defense Base Act claims.

Mr. Pacheco helped me with my Defense Base Act case. I was so unhappy with my previous attorney that I had to fire him. Mr. Pacheco was night and day better than my previous attorney. I could tell the difference from day one. I learned more about the Defense Base Act and my case in that first cal...l than I did from being with my previous attorney for six months. Mr. Pacheco and Mr. Mermell pushed my case to a hearing and resolved all past compensation and medical benefits in my favor. From then on, my case went perfect. I got paid all of my compensation and got great medical care. When I was ready, these lawyers negotiated a very favorable settlement for me. If you are injured in Iraq or Afghanistan, you really must see these lawyers first. They will take great care of you.

David Pacheco is an excellent lawyer who fulfills his promises. I used to work in Afghanistan and after I returned from there I contacted Mr. Pacheco and asked for his help for my case in Defense Base Act claims against my employer. When I asked him if we will be able to win the case, he said: Of ...course we will, Its ME. He did handle my case so professionally and ended up winning it at the end. The weird thing is that we never met in person since Im here in Macedonia and him being there in the USA, but we still were able to communicate together and we were able to win the case. I am forever grateful to Mr. Pacheco and his associates Miss Rebecca Peake and Mr. Clifford R. Mermell.
