Upon graduating with honors from the College of Idaho in 1969, Bill went on to do graduate work in public administration at George Washington University under a Scottish Rite Fellowship before attending law school at the University of Denver. Following graduation from law school, Meyer accepted a position as Deputy District Attorney in Denver where he tried in excess of 100 cases. Between his stint as a prosecutor with the Denver District Attorney and a position with the Colorado Attorney General as First Assistant Attorney General in 1982, Bill went into the private practice of law where he specialized in complex commercial litigation. |
While with the Attorney General’s office, Bill was deputized as a Special Assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of Colorado and a Deputy District Attorney in the twenty-two Colorado judicial districts. He handled complex civil and criminal litigation in both state and federal courts.

He was director of the Denver District Court Early Neutral Evaluation Project and personally handled scores of settlement conferences.

He currently teaches evidence for the Colorado Judicial Branch and the National Judicial College as well as Dispute Resolution Skills. In addition, he is the Senior Judicial Fellow for the National Drug Court Institute. |
As a nationally recognized authority on evidence he has published one book and several articles on that subject. His book, Rules of Evidence with Objections, was updated in 2005 as a third edition.

He is currently co-editor of the Colorado Pattern Jury Instructions-Criminal, with an expected publication date in 2006. Bill Meyer has always been active in the community.
