Our Walkup attorney provided total embrace of us, with excellent care, attentiveness, and professionalism from beginning to end. We would recommend this firm to any one requiring services of the kind they provide.

We recently resolved our case thanks to the professional and personal manner provided by Richard Schoenberger at Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger Law Offices. Our case involved the death of a loved one and Rich's genuine and respectful style during an extremely difficult period helped us immensely. The personal approach, while maintaining the professional management of the case, helped guide us through the unfamiliar legal process for a successful outcome. We are forever grateful and highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of these type of services.

Richard Schoenberger…….enough said. From the moment he took over my case, he worked like a bull. Not only is he an excellent lawyer, working hard for his clients, but he is, also, extremely personable with a great sense of humor. Throughout the process, he genuinely cared about myself and my children and always kept us abreast of what was going to happen, answering any questions we all had so that we were entirely comfortable. You need a lawyer? Contact WALKUP, MELODIA, KELLY + SCHOENBERGER. You will not be disappointed.

The team at Walkup lived up to their reputation of offering stellar representation. They took the weight of the world off my family’s shoulders so we could focus on our family. Doris Cheng and the team of attorneys were outstanding in every aspect from keeping us informed of important steps and guiding us through the process. Highly recommend.

Sara Peters helped me deal with the complicated ins and outs of insurance claims after a car accident. She communicated regularly, was clear about expectations, and got me through a difficult time. I highly recommend Sara Peters. She's very understanding, thorough, and will be up front and honest with you.

The Law Offices of Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger based on our case was the best firm to represent our legal needs with a positive outcome. Michael Kelly and Andrew McDevitt left no stone unturned, and they focused in on all the details. They brought in the experts and interviewed witnesses to get to the truth, and they kept us informed throughout our case. We felt from the beginning that Michael Kelly and Andrew McDevitt took a personal interest in our case and in our family. I would highly recommend the Law Offices of Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger if you need personal injury legal representation. We are thankful we had their legal experience, expertise, and ability to argue our case for a positive outcome.

Michael Kelly and Christian Jagusch changed my family's life forever. After a tragic incident involving my child, my wife and I called numerous lawyers only to be told that we did not have a chance to win. Feeling defeated, I called this firm as a last attempt and they immediately scheduled a meeting with my family and accepted our case. The settlement won gave my wife and I the piece of mind that my child will be taken care of forever. If you need a personal injury attorney or have been involved in any accident I strongly recommend that you consult with them first. I know the feeling of wanting to stop calling lawyers but please don't give up and give them a call!

My daughter was a right-of-way pedestrian when she was struck by a left-turning vehicle at the intersection of Bush and Gough streets. While she did not sustain broken bones, she did hit her head on the pavement with intensity and recovered slowly over a two-year-plus period. I contacted Walkup Melodia during the COVID outbreak which contributed to the stress of our situation. Mike Kelly, a partner at Walkup, called me back after two hours and immediately understood the trauma that my daughter experienced and the timeline we had in reference to the statute of limitations. While I understand the need for law firms to conduct an intake, Mike skipped that process initially because he was immediate in answering what was important to us - the client - not the firm’s needs given the unusual nature of events during the pandemic. He was sensitive, supportive and insightful with his acute understanding of the trajectory of my daughter’s injuries and how our case would play out with the insurance company. In plain language, he explained what the projected range of compensation my daughter should expect. His representation was so valuable and his knowledge so deep in personal injury law in Northern California, we are so grateful to have received such amazing, thoughtful and immediate attention and representation from a high-level, gracious and profoundly knowledgeable attorney. If you have had a similar unfortunate circumstance, contact Mike at the Walkup firm to feel appropriately compensated for the trauma you have endured. There is no disappointment in dealing with this firm. For my daughter, Mike’s representation was immensely gratifying for her both during the process, which was never wasteful, inefficient or antagonistic, and with the actual award in compensation for pain, suffering and medical reimbursement she received from the insurance company after negotiations.

Sara and Justin were great to work with. They were extremely thorough, supportive, and always made keeping us informed and our interest a priority. We're thankful for their guidance.

SUPER LAWYERS MAKE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE In 2018, I was hit by a car while I was walking in my neighborhood. I nearly died in the emergency room then spent 2 months in intensive care and a total of 4 months bedridden in a hospital. Very fortunately, my family found Matthew Davis and Joseph Nicholson. They took my case and represented me. They are extremely professional and knowledgeable. Matthew and Joseph were dedicated, considerate, and responsive in every step. They truly care about their clients and went the extra mile to make their client happy. Their professional manner made me and my family feel confident. They did not give up even when it looked like there would be little insurance money available. Matthew and Joseph turned every stone; and found a solution to what at one time appeared to be a nearly impossible case. The settlement we eventually reached was well beyond our expectation. With their help, I have been able to focus on recovering and to the surprise of my doctors have been able to learn to walk again. I was truly blessed to have Matthew and Joseph represent me. Matthew and Joseph and rest of Walkup team are Super Lawyers. They helped me and my family get through a very painful time. I and my family will be always be grateful to them.
