The \(W^{1,p}\) -estimate for solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the following linear elliptic equation \[ -\text{div}(A(x)\nabla u)=f(x),\quad x\in \Omega , \] is studied, where \(\Omega \) is a bounded connected open set of \({\mathbb R}^{N},\) \(N\geq 2,\) and \(A\) is an element of \((L^{\infty }(\Omega))^{N\times N}\) which satisfies classical ellipticity and boundedness conditions. The main purpose of the paper is to give some generalization of the Meyers' theorem [see \textit{N. Meyers}, Ann. Scuola Norm. Sup. Pisa, Sci. Fis. Mat., III. Ser. 17, 189-206 (1963; Zbl 0127.31904)] from smooth enough domains, to open sets with Lipschitz continuous boundary as well as to a large choice of boundary conditions like Neumann, Fourier and mixed boundary conditions. Finally, the preceding results are used to prove uniqueness for solutions of a Dirichlet problem with measure data.
