Paul is an entrepreneur, trial lawyer, business builder and visionary. Paul is the founder and managing partner of the law firm of Goyette & Associates, Inc. Paul is also the founder and partner of RN Guardian Inc., a legal plan that provides affordable and proactive representation to try and keep California RNs employed, working and productive.

Paul is one of the preeminent trial lawyers in California and is currently enjoying a lengthy winning streak dating from 1995. Paul serves as lead trial counsel, both criminal and civil matters in both State and Federal court.

Paul began his legal career in 1988 representing public safety employees while working for the law firm of Silver, Hadden & Silver in Los Angeles, where Paul worked closely with his mentor and close friend, Stephen H. Silver and Susan Silver. In 1991 Paul relocated to Northern California and founded Goyette & Associates Inc. (G&A). G&A has grown and now has offices in Sacramento, Modesto, Redding, Fresno, Yreka and Redwood City.

G&A represents over 125 institutional clients throughout California including public sector employee organizations as well as small and medium-sized businesses. G&A has thriving departments in license defense, class action and complex litigation, business legal counsel and litigation, criminal defense litigation, estate planning, writs and appeals, and labor and employment matters.

Paul’s best asset is the ability to assemble a unique team of professionals who are allowed and encouraged to work in their area of expertise to provide the highest quality service to G&A clients through aggressive and uncompromising representation. One of the cornerstone principles that G&A was founded upon is the simple concept of returning a phone call. It is amazing how many lawyers simply do not return phone calls in a timely manner. The clients are the customers and deserve immediate attention. When it is extremely important to win trials, clients turn to G&A.
