Dori B. Hightower

Dori B. Hightower has been a solo practitioner in both Connecticut and California for over 20 years. She serves a variety of clients, but her most recent concentration has been in complex and contentious matrimonial cases. Hightower’s compassion and sensitivity in helping her clients through the difficult and often complex process of divorce has proven to be one of her strongest assets.

In the corporate sector, Hightower was Senior Counsel for the Southern New England Telephone Company, where she provided legal counsel in the areas of cable television, internet access services, protection of intellectual property, contract management and oversight, regulatory compliance, and litigation support. Immediately following graduation from law school, she was a commercial litigation associate in a private law practice.

Hightower is a member of the Connecticut Bar Association and the American Bar Association. She is also a Connecticut Bar Association member of the Unauthorized Practice of Law Committee (UPL); Family Law Section; and Small Firm Practice Management Section, and was recently appointed to serve on the American Bar Associations Special Commission for the Law Library of Congress Advisory.

Hightower holds a B.A. from Bennington College and a J.D. from the Boston University School of Law.
