Eva Silva | San Francisco Personal Injury Lawyer

With a degree from California State University Hayward (now CSUEB) in hand, Eva Silva was only 20 years old when she started attending Santa Clara University School of Law where she was an active participant in the school’s Moot Court and Law Review. After receiving her JD, her passion for helping people took root during a summer clerkship at Van Der Walde & Associates in 2005. She’s been thriving as a passionate advocate for victims of personal injury ever since.

In 2017, Eva launched Schaar & Silva Trial Lawyers and has continued to foster new partnerships with other law firms, working to maximize results for her clients and provide the best representation possible. But it isn’t just about these collaborative efforts. Eva is also the managing attorney at Schaar & Silva, where her attention to detail is the uniting force within the litigation team — she handles coordinating legal research, writing briefs, and running the day-to-day operations at the firm.

Eva is also a member of Consumer Attorneys of California, Santa Clara County Trial Lawyers Association, Alameda-Contra Costa Trial Lawyers Association, Santa Clara Bar Association, Alameda-Contra Costa Bar Association, and for several consecutive years, she has been recognized as a Super Lawyers Rising Star.

When Eva isn’t getting to know her clients and their unique stories, she loves spending time with her two daughters in the Bay Area.
