Justin A Meyer

I have worked for Finra, a financial regulator; LeClairRyan; and the Legal Aid Society of Eastern Virginia. I have been recognized as a Technology Litigation Fellow by the Center for Legal and Court Technology, in Williamsburg, Virginia and was selected to participate in the Center’s annual lab trial.  I focus on corporate law and estate planning for the small business owner.

During my time at Finra, I worked in Registration and Disclosure, developing policies relating to past criminal sanctions, as well as assisting in decisions regarding expungment of customer complaints against registered brokers.  While at LeClairRyan, I assisted in the representation of a Community Association against a developer and worked to develop litigation strategies.  I also examined tax and school law issues.  At the Legal Aid Society of Eastern Virginia, I worked with an underserved population and assisted clients in estate planning, and protection from debt collectors.  I also advised clients on property matters and uncontested divorces.  I worked for the National Center for State Courts, a non-governmental policy organization, helping to establish a guidebook for judicial election and campaign oversight.

Prior to entering law school, I worked as a financial and legal writer, with articles appearing in national and regional publications as well as Yahoo! Finance.  I also worked as a senior research analyst for a think tank in Princeton, NJ, focusing on real estate and hedge fund due diligence best practices.

I earned a B.A. from the University of Maryland, College Park, an M.A. from Stony Brook University, both in history, and a J.D. from the Marshall-Wythe School of Law at the College of William and Mary, where I was a member of the William & Mary Journal of Women and the Law.  I was Education Chair of the College’s chapter of the Virginia Bar Association, andam a member of the New Jersey Bar Association, New York Bar Association and Suffolk County Bar Association.
