Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco, P. A.

Mr. Mermell and his Law firm handled my DBA Case. I was injured while working overseas in Afghanistan. Their hard work and dedication made a huge difference. Contacting the law firm of Gillis Mermell & Pacheco, to handle my case, was the best decision I ever made. I highly recommend this law firm to everyone. Thank you again Mr. Mermell for your hard work and dedication. God bless you all

Mr. Pacheco and his firm were amazing lawyers, very confident, and very helpful with my Defense Base Act case. I was doing security in the Middle East when I was injured. Mr. Pacheco helped me get the care I needed to be able to walk and to live in my daily life. In the end, Mr. Pacheco helped me settle my case and I am very satisfied and happy with the outcome. I was referred to this firm by a friend and now I am referring my friends here as well.

Everyone at this law firm is professional, knowledgeable and kind. They were always easy to reach when I had questions and keept me informed of the process in my case. They took time to explain any concerns or doubts I had. If you are in need of a DBA Lawyers, this Office should be your first choice.

Negotiating DBA insurance claims under Workman's Compensation and maintaining the Department of Labor standards requires someone who clearly understands not only those standards but someone who knows how to negotiate a reasonable settlement with the insurance company. Backing down or away from the insurance company is NOT something you will find if you hire the Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco team!! During the settlement mitigation meeting the Insurance company offered me an embarrassing settlement. It was so far off the mark I was ready to walk. Of course this is how they play the game. However, Dave Pacheco, my attorney, was going to have none of the game playing and went right to the heart of the issue and by the time he wore the other meeting players down, we had a reasonably fair settlement that included the attorney fees that was commensurate with my lost annual salary before being injured. To be honest, at first, I was somewhat skeptical about who I had hired because it was tough to get phone calls and e-mails responded to. I learned that the closer you got to that mitigation meeting the more they become involved because they then have something to bite into. Most clients, like me, are overly anxious and want to know what is happening. I can assure you if you become a client of this attorney team, they will get it right when the time comes. I strongly encourage anyone who is involved in a DBA claim to get in touch with the Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco team!!!

I just finished my DBA case with Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco, P.A. They were very helpful, attentive, knowledgeable and great at there job. They got me an excellent result. I would highly recommend there firm to my family and friends.
