Formerly an elite corporate litigator counseling Fortune 500 companies in New York, New Jersey, and Delaware, Andrew Meerwarth moved to White Creek, NY in July 2024, where the Meerwarths have been dairy farmers for many generations. He opened Meerwarth Law PLLC in March 2025.

Throughout Andrew’s legal career, he has litigated many cases involving America’s most successful companies and business leaders, both defending those companies and at times suing them. Andrew’s advocacy skills are recognized and respected by many, particularly his ability to communicate complicated topics in a conversational manner. Whether in the courtroom, boardroom, dining room, or mudroom, Andrew is able to draw connections between abstract issues and everyday concerns, such as discussing the ways that capital structure of a business can impact day to day management, or how entity structure impacts decisionmaking and a company’s ability to pursue value-accretive risks.

Andrew has also litigated constitutional matters under the U.S. and various state constitutions, in cases concerning personal liberties as well as cases disputing government structure. He has also handled a wide variety of other cases involving commercial concerns like contract disputes and non-commercial matters like immigration and housing.

Andrew studied law at the University of Notre Dame, where he maintained a reputation for tenacious advocacy, even earning a class superlative for being the most eager law student to engage in intellectual combat. Andrew worked as a professor’s assistant, teaching practical business law concepts to junior law students.

Prior to law school, Andrew obtained a degree in literature from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. Among his favorite authors is John Steinbeck, who was a great advocate for the working class, especially the American farmer. Andrew wrote his undergraduate thesis on Steinbeck’s Grapes of Wrath, the seminal novel in which Steinbeck emphasized the importance of personal connection among individuals helping each other hand in hand, amidst an increasingly impersonal culture of faceless corporatism.

A self-described ardent capitalist, Andrew loves his country and believes that when Main Street and Wall Street work together, everyone wins and our communities can thrive.
