Welcome

With locations in Oakland and San Francisco, California, the Law Offices of Sterns & Walker represents victims of aviation accidents and other catastrophes and their families throughout the United States and worldwide.  Whether the case arises out of a major airline disaster or a tragedy involving a private plane, helicopter, or other circumstances, we have the experience to obtain recovery on behalf of our clients. 

Since its founding in 1977, Sterns & Walker has negotiated settlements and achieved verdicts in hundreds of aviation cases around the world, including in almost every major air carrier accident case of the past three decades.  We handle some of the most complex, time-consuming, and resource-intensive torts found in the field of civil law, frequently working in association with local counsel to broaden the scope of our capabilities.  In recognition of their work, members of the firm are listed in the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers, have been selected for inclusion to Northern California Super Lawyers, and are the recipients of Martindale-Hubbell's prestigious "AV" peer rating, indicating the highest levels of legal ability, professionalism and ethical standards.

For the convenience of our broad client base, our staff is fluent in a variety of languages, including Spanish, French, Armenian, and German.  We take cases on a contingency basis, meaning that unless our clients obtain recovery, we do not collect legal fees.
