Injured in Fort Myers
Construction is the largest industry by employment in Fort Myers, ahead of health care and retail trade, and years of hurricane rebuilding have kept roofers, framers, and restoration crews working across Lee County. Hospitality and airport-area jobs carry their own risks. Whether your case is workers' compensation, a third-party lawsuit, or both, we represent injured Lee County workers, including those worried about immigration status.
How Florida law applies
Florida has specific rules on deadlines, shared fault, and insurance coverage that decide how much you can recover. We explain how they apply to your case, at no cost, in your language.
Full Florida workplace injuries guideFort Myers questions
Where is my Fort Myers injury case filed?
Fort Myers is the county seat of Lee County, so injury lawsuits from crashes and falls there are filed in the Twentieth Judicial Circuit at the Lee County Justice Center in downtown Fort Myers. Pino Law Firm's office is in Orlando and we handle Lee County cases from there, appearing in that court when a suit has to be filed. Most claims settle first, but we prepare every one for trial.
I was hurt at work but worry about my immigration status. Can I still file a claim?
Yes. Florida workers' compensation and third-party injury claims do not depend on your immigration status, and your information stays protected. Depending on how you were hurt, you may have a workers' compensation claim, a lawsuit against a negligent third party, or both. You will always speak with a bilingual attorney.
Does it change my case if the driver who hit me in Fort Myers was a seasonal visitor from out of state?
Not your right to recover. Lee County's population climbs every winter as seasonal residents and visitors arrive, so out-of-state drivers and out-of-state policies are common in Fort Myers crashes. Florida law still governs the claim, but the other driver's coverage terms, policy limits, and whether they can be located after they go home all affect it. Tell us early if the at-fault driver was from out of state.
