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.

Calling Mr Pacheco, three years ago, was undoubtedly one of the best decisions I have ever made. This lawyer is a legal bulldog. After the initial consultation, he made sure my benefits were turned on, and proper medical treatment received for my injury, 2015-2018. After surgery, recovery, work hardening and being declared MMI, we eventually went into mediation. It was great watching this man work. He was able to negotiate a very respectable settlement, enabling me to reinvent my life after back surgery. David Pacheco is easily one of the best DBA lawyers in the country. He was genuine and transparent throughout the process. I highly recommend him for any of your overseas or longshoreman legal needs.

Gillis Mermell & Pacheco PA is one of the best companies in the states, it was a pleasure to work with very professional and caring DBA lawyers in Miami, Florida.

Located on the second floor

Fantastic & beyond my expectations .they handled my case very professionally and settled it exactly the way I Wanted .They established excellent relationships with the medical doctors ,physicians & Psychiatrists to pay close attention to my injury & PTSD issues & made the opposing side for handle all expenses. I highly recommend everyone to seek this professional legal firm when there is any problem or issue .

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 trusted them with my life and the outcome was absolutely amazing thank you so much for changing my life. if you need help i promise you will find it here
