About David M.
David M. Meyer has built a career that crosses law and business. He trained as a lawyer at Santa Clara University, earning his J.D. in 1984 after completing undergraduate studies in economics and accounting at Claremont McKenna College. The combination of legal training and an accounting background has shaped the way he approaches client problems.
Early in his career he moved into roles that mixed legal work with operational responsibilities. That path eventually led him to launch his own practice. In 2000 he established David Meyer Law and has run the practice since then. Six years later he took on an executive role outside the traditional law firm structure when he became chief operating officer at Robbins Research International. The COO position put him in charge of day-to-day operations at a company level and gave him experience managing teams, budgets and administrative systems.
Those varied roles reflect a pragmatic approach to legal work. He has handled matters for individuals and businesses in California and understands both the legal questions and the practical implications for an organization’s operations. His background in accounting informs how he assesses financial and transactional issues. The mix of skills is useful when advising clients who are balancing legal risk with business realities.
Colleagues describe him as methodical and businesslike. He is the sort of lawyer who breaks complex problems into manageable parts. That style has shown up in how he runs his firm. At David Meyer Law he oversees case strategy and firm administration. Running a small practice requires wearing many hats, and his earlier executive experience has proven relevant.
Outside the office he has remained engaged in the business community. The move from a full-time executive post back to private practice suggests a preference for direct client work and for guiding smaller engagements rather than large corporate layers. He continues to maintain professional ties in California and to serve clients through his own office.
He currently practices law in California through David Meyer Law, where he combines legal counsel with business and operational experience to serve individual and commercial clients.
