Panoramica

Arrissa K. Meyer is board certified in labor and employment law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Although she has significant experience in employment law, she focuses her practice on traditional labor law.

Arrissa regularly handles unfair labor practice charges, represents employers in labor arbitration and grievance proceedings, negotiates collective bargaining agreements, assists clients through representation elections, performs union avoidance training sessions, and provides advice and counsel regarding labor management relations.

In the employment arena, Arrissa defends clients in civil litigation, including collective and class actions, involving claims under Title VII, ADA, ADEA, FLSA, FMLA, TCHRA, and various other state and federal employment laws. She has also handled EEOC and Department of Labor investigations and administrative whistleblower complaints and drafted and reviewed separation agreements, employment agreements and handbooks.

Arrissa enjoys getting to know her clients as well as the ins and outs of their business as she counsels them on day-to-day labor and employment issues. Clients know they can call Arrissa and get a prompt response that includes practical and easy-to-understand advice, and she feels like she has succeeded in her practice when she becomes a valued part of her clients’ employment decision-making process.

In law school, she was an articles editor for the SMU Law Review Association.
