He made the experience very simple and he made me feel comfortable. I was always well informed and prepared for each step of the case. He helped me get my payments and my medical care. In the end, he got me a settlement that I was not expecting. I am very happy with the way my case went and I am highly recommending Mr. Mermell to any workers involved with a DBA worker’s compensation case.”
