Handling Car Accident Cases in Oakland and Throughout the East Bay Area
If you have never been involved in an injury accident before, you may not understand how difficult it can be to get the financial compensation you are entitled to.
Most victims who are not at fault expect the wrongdoer's insurance company to treat them fairly. Too often, injured people and their families find themselves in a waiting game, juggling unpaid medical bills, unable to make headway with the insurer, being treated with suspicion when they have done nothing wrong. Some even find their accident injury claim denied.
The injury specialists of the Walkup Law Firm will make the opposing insurance company behave properly — to cover your losses. That's when the Oakland car accident attorneys at Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger can help.
For 50 years, we have worked to make sure Oakland car accident victims and their families get the financial recovery they are entitled to by law. Our legal knowledge, investigative resources and zealous advocacy on behalf of clients gets results. We have recovered millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for injured people.

Car accidents can sometimes result in truly catastrophic injury. Medical costs, rehabilitation costs and lost wages can skyrocket to a million dollars or more. At Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger, we have helped hundreds of families like yours. We protect your financial interests in negotiations and at trial.
We understand the short-term and long-term consequences of serious injuries, such as brain damage or spinal cord injuries. Every aspect of your life can change in an instant. You may not be able to work in the job you once held. You may need job retraining. You may need ongoing skilled nursing care.
We understand that the true value of your personal injury claim includes the costs you have today as well as future costs for such things as:
- Medical treatment
- Rehabilitation
- Physical and occupational therapy
- Adaptive equipment
- Medical equipment for the home

In the most difficult situations, a person may no longer be capable of caring for himself or herself. A family will have lost the companionship and income that person brought into the family. They may face the financial burden of costly, intensive nursing or home care.
We do not let our clients accept a financial settlement offer that is less than they are legally entitled to. If a defendant will not make a fair pre-trial offer, we will take your Oakland car accident case to trial.
