Attorney Dori Chadbourne attended Mount Holyoke College, where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree, cum laude, in 1990 with a double major in Political Science and International Relations, and Harvard Law School, where she received her Doctorate of Jurisprudence degree, also cum laude, in 1993. Attorney Chadbourne is admitted to practice before all state courts in Maine and Massachusetts, as well as the U.S. District Courts for the Districts of Maine and Massachusetts and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.
Attorney Chadbourne began her legal career as a litigation attorney at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom where her practice focused on securities class actions, corporate governance, insider trading cases, business disputes, business torts, contract disputes, and First Amendment cases. In 1995, she transferred to Goodwin, Procter & Hoar in Boston, Massachusetts, now known as Goodwin Procter LLP to broaden her practice and experience. At Goodwin Procter, Attorney Chadbourne continued handling cases similar to those she had handled at Skadden Arps but broadened her practice to include toxic tort actions, consumer protection actions, RICO actions, ERISA matters, banking and mortgage litigation, fraud actions and a broader array of the tort and contract actions.
After practicing in Boston for seven years, Attorney Chadbourne returned to her home state of Maine, where she joined Pierce Atwood?s litigation department for one year before opening Chadbourne Law Offices. At Pierce Atwood, Attorney Chadbourne practiced primarily in the area of toxic torts. Since opening her own firm, however, she has refocused her practice on family law while continuing also to handle general civil litigation matters ranging from breach of contract and fraud claims to real estate disputes to business disputes and employment discrimination claims.
