SANTA ANA, Calif. – September 18, 2026 – Fontes Work Injury Attorneys, the Workers’ Compensation practice of Fontes Law Group, PC, announced that it has restructured its Workers’ Compensation operation into a standalone practice with dedicated Workers’ Compensation teams in Santa Ana and Riverside. The change separates the firm’s contingency-based Workers’ Compensation work from its other practice areas while preserving the option to share attorneys and support staff across the firm when appropriate.
Each team provides injured workers with full bilingual English and Spanish service, deeper local familiarity with employers and treating physicians, and faster response across the claim lifecycle.
“Our work comp clients deserve a team that does nothing but Workers’ Compensation. It’s a contingency practice with its own rhythm: different timelines, different paperwork, different relationships with treating doctors and adjusters,” said Martin Fontes, founding attorney of Fontes Law Group, PC. “Setting up a dedicated team means injured workers get faster answers, better follow-through, and people who know their case in detail. We’ll still share resources across the firm when it serves a client, but this team exists for them.”
Rosa Duarte, Workers’ Compensation Hearing Representative at the firm’s Riverside office, said: “My job is showing up for injured workers in the Inland Empire. Knowing the local employers, the local doctors, the local boards. Whether it’s a warehouse injury or a construction injury, the goal is the same: getting workers the care and benefits the law says they’re entitled to.”
Jose Ruiz, Workers’ Compensation Hearing Representative at the firm’s Santa Ana office, said: “Orange County is incredibly diverse. Warehouse workers, restaurant staff, construction crews, healthcare workers, you name it. Every case is different, but what matters is the same: making sure the person who got hurt actually gets what they’re owed.”
The restructuring reflects sustained demand from workers in the region’s warehouse, construction, agricultural, healthcare, manufacturing, and hospitality sectors. Santa Ana and Riverside rank among California’s most diverse and economically active cities, with large Spanish-speaking workforces.
California Workers’ Compensation provides injured employees with medical treatment, temporary disability benefits, permanent disability benefits, supplemental job displacement benefits, and, in fatal cases, death benefits. Fontes Work Injury Attorneys represents workers throughout the claim process, including denied claims, disputes over medical treatment, and disputes over permanent impairment ratings.
The dedicated teams now operate from two offices:
Santa Ana Workers’ Compensation Attorneys serving Orange County 2740 N Grand Ave, Suite 201 Santa Ana, CA 92705 (714) 364-2083
Riverside Workers’ Compensation Attorneys serving the Inland Empire 6377 Riverside Ave, Suite 205 Riverside, CA 92506 (951) 612-9616
