Happy November from LINO AMARAL's STATE FARM Agency in Pinole! As we enter the month of gratitude, we want to take a moment to thank you for being part of our State Farm family. Let’s work together to secure your future and protect those grateful moments that matter!

Fall is a great time to schedule an appointment to look at your financial goals and insurance coverages for the coming year, especially since the industry as a whole is a bit crazy. It's important to regularly review and update our financial goals and insurance coverage to ensure we're on the right track. I can assist you in getting started on the right track for 2025 and beyond - the sooner you start, the better! My team and I are always committed to help you with all of your insurance and financial needs including the subject of LIFE INSURANCE. We will broach the subject in every conversation we have with our customers - it is that important!

PLEASE feel free to CALL / TEXT or schedule a Virtual Meeting or VISIT my office directly with any questions.

As a result significant challenges in recent years in the California insurance industry, State Farm has temporarily suspended writing any NEW fire insurance business in California. Given the current landscape, it’s essential for consumers to work with knowledgeable insurance professionals who can help navigate the complexities, assess coverage needs, and find the most appropriate options available. We are here for YOU!

Our mission is always to exceed our customer's expectations by building quality relationships which enable us to provide excellent service - don't take my word for it, just take a look at some of our REVIEWS!

We do this by helping customers manage their everyday risks through a combination of proper coverage and reasonable price - this is the foundation of my agency philosophy. Let's have a simple conversation about your current coverages and what they actually do and (don't do) for you and your family! Afterall, you never want to find out you do not have adequate coverage at one of those times when you actually need it!

With over two decades of experience in the insurance and financial services industry, and as a proud State Farm policyholder for over 30 years, I am dedicated to addressing all your insurance and financial service needs. My background as a former CEO of a not-for-profit fraternal life insurance company has equipped me with a deep understanding of risk management and the critical role insurance plays in safeguarding what you’ve worked so hard to earn.

As a proud and passionate son of a Portuguese immigrant, I deeply value the time I spend with my family and friends. My wife, Linda, and our three children—Matthew (Felicia), Monica, and Lindsey—are at the center of my life, and I cherish every moment we share. I am also grateful to have my parents, who still reside in Rodeo, as an integral part of our lives.

Whether we're gathered at home, celebrating at family functions, participating in cultural events, playing golf, cooking together, or enjoying camping trips, I truly appreciate the blessings that life has to offer. These moments enrich my life and inspire me in both my personal and professional endeavors.

As a lifelong Contra Costa resident, I am fortunate and proud to be a State Farm Agent in the community that I was raised in! I am a West Contra Costa native, born at Brookside Hospital, grew up in Tara Hills, went to Kerry Hills Elementary, Pinole Jr. High and graduated from Pinole Valley High School where I excelled in football and track and was very active in school leadership and a parishioner at St. Joseph's Church. Pinole, Hercules, Rodeo, Port Costa, Crockett, San Pablo, Richmond, El Cerrito are towns that are dear to my heart-- I know West County! Regardless of where you live in California, I am licensed to provide you with the breath of insurance offerings that State Farm offers and the "Like a Good Neighbor" service that State Farm has become famous for!

Whether you need coverage for your Auto, Home, Life, Business, RV, Boat, or Motorcycle insurance or retirement & educational questions, I am here to provide personalized guidance and support. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools necessary to make informed decisions about your insurance options. I look forward to becoming your source for all your insurance needs. Let’s work together to protect your future!
