About Jeffrey
Biography
Born in Austin in 1970, I have devoted more than half of my life to the study and practice of law. I entered UT law school in 1992 and have been practicing law in Dallas since 1995. I am board certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization (Personal Injury Trial Law) and The National Board of Trial Advocates (Civil Trial Law).
Let me briefly explain why board certification should matter to you: Your matter is important whether it is a business dispute, a death, or a serious injury. With only 10% of Texas attorneys able to claim board certification, you are generally better served to hire someone who has qualified to become board certified (by trying cases in a courtroom) and has then passed the rigorous examination. Why leave your important matter to chance?
My partner William Angelley and I primarily take aviation disaster and accident cases.

Outstanding Service and Knowledge!
Jeff helped me deal with the insurance companies after a hunting accident that put me in the ICU/hospital for 2 months. Without his assistance, I would not have been successful in my efforts to recover financial compensation from the involved parties and their insurance companies. His knowledge of no...
Jeffrey W. Hightower Jr.'s Lawyer Endorsements
"I have had the privilege to personally work with Jeff on numerous matters and have known him for over a decade. Jeff is one of the most tenacious lawyers I have ever come to know. I admire him for his intellect and incredible work ethic. I have worked with and referred complicated cases to Jeff with great results, and look forward to doing so again. Jeff and I overlap in areas of law as well as in geography. As a result, we sometimes refer each other clients when we think one case might be a better for fit for the other at the time. When I refer a client to Jeff, I do so with complete confidence they will get one of the very best attorneys in DFW who is unafraid to do whatever is required to secure justice."
"Jeff is extremely bright, tenacious and great in the courtroom. He is one to watch."
"I had the honor of trying an aviation case with Jeff as his 2nd chair. The team of high-dollar defense attorneys saw zero chance of success in the case. Jeff did. He was right. They Jury returned a verdict several-fold of the Defendant’s “top offer.”"
