As an employment lawyer at Meyer Stephenson Employment Law, Talia Y. Guerriero takes pride in protecting workers and defending their rights. She primarily handles cases in employment law, labor and union rights, employment discrimination and wrongful termination. Most of her clients hail from Portland, OR, and its surrounding areas.

Ms. Guerriero became licensed to practice in Oregon in 2011. She started her journey to becoming a lawyer at the University of California, where she completed her psychology degree with high honors.

While in college, she had prestigious externships serving Judge Steele at the Clackamas County Circuit Court and Judge Tauro in the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts. It did not take long for Ms. Guerriero to make a name for herself as an advocate of the LGBTQ community.

A strong passion for civil rights and social justice has defined Ms. Guerriero, her career and her lifestyle choices. Consequently, she has focused much of her work on serving as the underdog for marginalized communities and empowering members of the LGBTQ community. This commitment led to her three-year involvement in an insurance related case that improved LGBTQ access to their partners' insurance policies.
