Why Pimentel Law?
At Pimentel Law, we take what we do seriously. We don’t put our faces on billboards or have catchy TV and radio jingles. Instead, we let our work speak for itself. We are not “billboard” or “radio jingle” lawyers. These types of law practices are typically “high-volume,” which means that they are usually too overwhelmed with cases to give yours the time and attention it deserves.
What separates us from other law firms is that our lawyers represent a small, select number of clients. Our focus is quality, not quantity. This allows us to dedicate the time it takes to prepare your case for a full and fair verdict at trial.
What Happens During Your Employment Consultation?
When you call for a free employment consultation, an attorney, not a paralegal or intake specialist, reviews the specific facts of your situation, including pay stubs, termination paperwork, performance reviews, and any written communication with your employer.
From there, we walk you through whether your claim fits under California’s FEHA, the federal EEOC process, wage and hour protections enforced by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division, or another legal framework, and what a realistic timeline and case value might look like. There is no cost for this conversation, no pressure to sign anything on the spot, and no obligation to move forward.
How Common Are Workplace Discrimination and Retaliation Claims?
Workplace discrimination and retaliation are not rare, isolated events. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission processed 88,201 new discrimination charges nationwide in fiscal year 2025 alone, and California is consistently among the states with the highest volume of filings. Those figures only capture claims that reached a formal charge; many more employees never speak with an attorney to find out whether what happened to them was against the law.
An employment consultation is the fastest way to find out where you stand before a filing deadline passes.
