Filomena E. Meyer

Filomena Meyer focuses her practice on the defense of personal injury, premises liability, wrongful death, product liability, and health care actions. She has represented both plaintiffs and defendants and handles cases in a wide range of areas including personal injury, health care and medical malpractice, elder abuse, wrongful death and survivor actions, insurance bad faith class actions, professional liability and ethics, complex business and commercial litigation, real estate litigation, labor and employment, construction defects, toxic torts, and intellectual property litigation. Filomena has represented clients throughout the state courts in Northern and Southern California and in the U.S. District Courts for the Central, Southern, and Eastern Districts of California.

An experienced appellate advocate, Filomena has prepared more than 30 appellate briefs, including petitions for writs of mandate and writs of certiorari before the California Supreme Court, including five published decisions in cases involving investor fraud, wrongful termination of employment, legal malpractice, and labor and employment issues. She has likewise presented oral argument before all divisions of the Second and Fourth Appellate Districts. 

On each case, Filomena brings to bear not only her decades of experience as a civil litigator but also an unflagging dedication to her clients and her craft, the investigative instincts of a legal bloodhound, and a mastery of law and procedure in her areas of concentration. A client has said of Filomena: “To say this matter was skillfully handled would be a profound understatement … I’ve seen a lot of good and bad lawyering over the … years, and this was, quite simply, the best. Every strategic move was masterfully played, the briefs were amazing, and … equally great in oral argument … I wish every client had the luxury of feeling this good about their representation.”
