Paul J. Pimentel, Partner

Fresno native Paul J. Pimentel has practiced law in California for 25+ years. Since 1995, Mr. Pimentel has specialized in three broad categories of cases:

  • Injury cases including wrongful death, vehicular accidents, animal attacks, harassment or discrimination, wrongful termination, medical malpractice, workers’ compensation, and wage-and-hour cases
  • Wills and trusts including all disputes relating to the creation or administration of a will or trust
  • Commercial and business disputes that arise when you thought you had an agreement but you don’t, or the other party is “confused” about what was agreed on. Resolutions sometimes be reached simply through a letter or a phone call; in other cases, it may take a lawsuit. Mr. Pimentel tailors his approach to each case to achieve the best, most cost-effective outcomes for his clients.
