Your Attorney, Your AdvocateSu Abogado, Su Defensor

Julio Fernandez grew up in Miami as the son of Cuban immigrants — a family that understood what it means to work hard and to need someone in your corner when things go wrong. After earning his law degree from Saint Thomas University, he spent years representing injured workers at firms across South Florida, including Morgan & Morgan in Fort Myers. In 2015, he opened his own practice in Lehigh Acres with one goal: to give every client the personal attention that large firms can't. When you call Julio, he answers. When you have a question, he explains it — in English or Spanish. That's what "I'm Here for You" means.

Discuss Your Case

Medical Benefits

When you're hurt on the job, your employer's insurance company controls your medical care — and they don't always have your best interests in mind. I fight to make sure you get the surgery, prescriptions, home care, and medical equipment you need to recover, not just what the insurer wants to approve.

Medical care including surgery
Professional home care or by a family member
Prescriptions
Medical transportation / mileage reimbursement
Durable Medical Equipment (DME)
Reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses

Indemnity Benefits

A workplace injury doesn't just hurt your body — it threatens your paycheck and your family's stability. I work to secure every dollar of lost wages and disability benefits you're entitled to, and I challenge underpayments that insurance companies hope you won't notice.

Lost time from work
Adjustments in rate of benefits paid
Temporary or permanent disability
Permanent impairment benefits
Benefit advances

Death Benefits

Losing a family member to a workplace accident is devastating. During this difficult time, I handle the legal process so you don't have to — securing funeral expense coverage, survivor benefits, and educational support for your family while you grieve.

Funeral expenses
Survivor monetary benefits
Post-secondary education benefits for dependents

Job Retraining

If your injury means you can't return to your old job, Florida law provides retraining benefits to help you start a new career. I make sure the insurance company funds your education, covers your living expenses during retraining, and doesn't cut corners on your future.

Training and education
Re-employment services
Disability payments during retraining
