About Jillian E.
Jillian E. Colby earned her J.D. from Roger Williams University School of Law. She completed the program prepared for state and federal practice, departing law school ready to enter a two-state practice environment.
She is licensed to practice in both New Hampshire and Maine. Colby holds current membership in the New Hampshire Bar Association and maintains ties to legal communities in both jurisdictions. Those memberships keep her engaged with continuing legal education and matters of local practice.
Her early career involved the transition from law school into the daily work of an attorney admitted in two states. That transition required learning the procedural differences between courts and adapting to client expectations on either side of the state line. Colby’s path reflects a steady accumulation of courtroom and client-facing experience in regional practice settings.
Colby’s professional practice centers on serving clients from Kalil & LaCount. At the firm she handles matters that arise under New Hampshire and Maine law, coordinating filings, appearances and client counseling across state boundaries. She works alongside colleagues to manage cases and transactions that require familiarity with both statutory frameworks and local court procedures.
She participates in the New Hampshire Bar Association as a way to stay current on rule changes and legal trends that affect day-to-day practice. That involvement also keeps her connected to peers who practice in neighboring jurisdictions. Colby’s dual admission gives her practical advantage when matters touch both states, whether through concurrent litigation or cross-border transactional work.
Colby takes a hands-on approach to client matters. She prepares filings, appears in court and meets with clients to explain options and likely next steps. Her routine blends research, drafting and in-person advocacy. Colby balances office-based preparation with courtroom and conference appearances when cases require advocacy.
Outside of litigation and court work, she handles client communications and strategy that help move matters toward resolution. Colby’s practice at Kalil & LaCount spans the regional legal needs of individuals and businesses that require counsel licensed in New Hampshire and Maine. She is currently practicing at Kalil & LaCount, concentrating on matters arising under New Hampshire and Maine law.
