Pettinato & Associates

Since its inception in 1996, Pettinato & Associates has become a volume leader within the unclaimed property recovery field in California and maintains a success rate with claims that are submitted to holders nationwide of greater than 95%. Founder and Managing Member Scott Pettinato is a licensed private investigator with the Department of Consumer Affairs and is a member of the California Association of Licensed Investigators. Pettinato & Associates has an excellent standing with the Better Business Bureau, and the firm strives for complete client satisfaction and confidentiality in each case it investigates.

Pettinato & Associates has experience handling cases of all types, sizes, and levels of difficulty. A knowledgeable and experienced staff makes it possible for Pettinato & Associates to navigate through the often complex process of filing a property claim smoothly and efficiently. The firm’s expertise also spares its clients from the irrelevant questions and frustration that often comes from filing their claims on their own and dealing with untrained state evaluators. Pettinato & Associates provides its clients with a single point of contact that is ready to promptly answer questions and proactively address any issues that may surface during the recovery process.

Unlike the bureaucratic governmental agencies holding the monies, Pettinato & Associates’ interests are aligned solely with their client. If their claim efforts are not successful, Pettinato & Associates does not receive their contingency fee, making it an ideal situation for the client because they do not need to pay any fees for services that do not result in the recovery of their claim. Pettinato & Associates’ method of no up-front fees or retainers also attracts clients who could not afford to pay a fee otherwise.

Pettinato & Associates is headquartered in Sacramento, CA.
