As a founding partner of Hightower Reff Law, Tracy has built a reputation for providing strategic legal guidance, practical solutions, and compassionate advocacy for clients throughout Omaha and eastern Nebraska.

Tracy’s practice is focused exclusively on family law, allowing her to develop deep experience in divorce, child custody, parenting plans, child support, alimony, property division, mediation, collaborative divorce, uncontested divorce, legal separation, modifications, paternity, and surrogacy. Whether a case involves a straightforward uncontested divorce or a complex, high conflict custody dispute with significant financial assets, Tracy helps clients understand their options and confidently move forward.

Clients often seek Tracy when they need an experienced Omaha divorce lawyer who can protect their future while minimizing unnecessary conflict. She believes every family deserves a legal strategy tailored to their unique circumstances, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Her ability to combine thoughtful negotiation with strong courtroom advocacy has made her a respected choice for clients facing challenging family law matters.

Before founding Hightower Reff Law, Tracy gained valuable legal and business experience working as a legal associate at Union Pacific Railroad and in the corporate tax sector. That background gives her additional insight into financially complex divorces involving business ownership, executive compensation, retirement accounts, investments, real estate, and other significant marital assets.

Mediation and collaborative divorce remain central parts of Tracy’s practice. She believes many families benefit from resolving disputes outside of the courtroom whenever possible, helping clients save time, reduce stress, and maintain healthier relationships for the future. When litigation becomes necessary, Tracy is a confident and experienced advocate who works tirelessly to protect her clients’ interests.

Beyond representing clients, Tracy is committed to strengthening the Omaha community. She is a passionate advocate for women in business, mentorship, and professional development, and regularly supports organizations that empower future leaders. Her leadership has earned numerous recognitions, including the Midlands Business Journal’s 40 Under 40 award and the Ten Outstanding Young Omahans (TOYO) award.

Tracy earned her Juris Doctor from Thomas M. Cooley School of Law and founded Hightower Reff Law with the vision of creating a client-centered family law practice where people receive exceptional legal representation combined with genuine care, clear communication, and practical guidance.

When she is away from the office, Tracy enjoys reading on her deck and scuba diving, finding balance through both quiet reflection and adventure.

“Tracy: Thank you for everything. I will be sure to call you in the future and when the opportunity arises I will also let people know what a great job you did!”

Annette

“Tracy is amazing. She is the attorney you want sitting beside you or handling the touchy situations you dealt with. Tracy is professional, yet sensitive to her clients’ needs. I am glad to have met Tracy and referred her to my family!”

Lesley

“Tracy, I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for your help. I know my divorce was complex, but thank you for your professionalism and diligence.”

Brendon

“I was referred to Susan from a family member who works for the Douglas County Public Defender OFfice. She did an outstanding job on 2 charges I had in 2 different counties, both of which were dismissed. She was professional as they come, down-to-earth, and straight up with me. Prompt and well priced. Hope I never need a lawyer again, but if I do, Susan would be the person that I would call.”

Anonymous

“Susan – It has been a real pleasure working with you and we can’t thank you enough for the understanding compassion and indulgence. You are an asset to your profession.”

Vern

“When I first met with Susan she seemed very understanding and did not push me into anything I did not want to do. I left the first meeting feeling a little better about a bad situation. When I hired her she was not pushy about what to do or how to do it. Because I was still hoping for a different outcome, Susan and her staff were very understanding even when I did not take their advice. They still guided my through a very hard time. Thank you!”

Mike

“My husband and I hired Tracy to help us with a rare legal matter. She spent a lot of time researching the issue and came up with conclusions I don’t feel every lawyer would have considered. She really listened to what we wanted and needed and has taken on a lot of the burden that was weighing on us. We are still in our legal process, but we wouldn’t be as far along in the process without Tracy.”

Jennifer

“Tracy, I’m feeling really, really happy and wanted to let you know how thankful I am that you are representing me. Thank you so much!”

Ryan

“Tosha is great helping people decide how to manage their will and estate planning. She takes time to discuss all of their needs.”

Lynn

“I would highly recommend Tracy. She represented me in my divorce which included child custody and child support issues. I was extremely impressed with her knowledge and professional skills. Tracy was always responsive and was agressive as needed. I would use Tracy again in any legal matter that may come up in the future.”
