Usage notes

Some state that as a transitive verb in the context "to come together by chance or arrangement", meet (as in meet (someone)) does not require a preposition between verb and object; the phrase meet with (someone) is deemed incorrect. Nonetheless, in the sense "come face to face with someone by arrangement", meet with is generally accepted as an American English usage. See also meet.
