Wayne P Russell

Wayne was excellent from start to finish as far as support for me and my claim. I was deployed in multiple countries overseas. When I was injured, I started my DBA case with this law firm that was recommended to me. Despite me moving around, Wayne was able to find me multiple physicians and keep t...rack of my records and keep me informed of my case. Whenever I had questions, he always answered them promptly. He did a great job of coordinating the case with all parties and moving my case forward. The final result was very positive and exceeded my expectations. I am recommending Wayne to others in similar situations.

After getting injured serving on a DOD contract overseas, I heard about the DBA. I was told it was a good law but that it had a lot of land mines that could throw you off if you were not careful. I did not have the legal expertise nor the right frame of mind to deal with that while trying to recove...r from my injuries. Thankfully after searching on line, I was able to find my way to this law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco and I was connected specifically to Wayne Russell, Esq. Working with Wayne was great. He was very clear about what to expect. He was very responsive to my calls. He clearly communicated where we were at with the insurance company and what my rights were within the law. I am convinced that had I not hired this law firm, I would have misstepped somewhere along the way and would not have received the favorable outcome that I did get. Though I would never want anyone to be injured overseas, if you are, I would strongly recommend these guys to help you out with your Defense Base Act case.

Wayne is really personable. He cares about his clients. He returns your phone calls in a timely manner and does not blow you off. He gave me realistic expectations. He handled my Defense Base Act case for injuries in Iraq and Afganistán. I was pleasantly surprised by the way he negotiated my cas...e and my settlement exceeded my expectations. I have already referred one of my co workers to Wayne to handle his case.

Attorney Russell was extremely patient. He returned all my calls in a timely fashion. He also took my calls whenever I called in even if I did not have an appointment. He was aggressive at getting my checks started back when the adjuster stopped them on several occasions. He spoke to both my psyc...hiatrist and my therapist to stay up to date on my medical status. The end result with Wayne was great. He is an excellent attorney and a nice professional guy as well.
