About Rebecca
Rebecca Hutcheon has a layered academic background that spans three countries and three decades. She earned her B.A. from Wellesley College in 1995, completed an M.A. at the University of Auckland in 2006, and received her J.D. from Rutgers School of Law–Newark in 2012. Those milestones frame a professional trajectory that moves from broad liberal arts and international study into the practice of law in New Jersey and New York.
After law school, Hutcheon established herself in private practice. She is listed as counsel at Skoloff & Wolfe, P.C., where she has practiced since becoming licensed to appear before multiple state and federal tribunals. Her admissions include the bars of New York and New Jersey, the U.S. District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and the District of New Jersey, and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey. Those credentials reflect regular courtroom and filing work in both state and federal systems.
Her professional affiliations underline a sustained engagement with the local legal community. She holds memberships in the New Jersey State Bar Association and the New York City Bar Association. She also participates in the New York City chapter of the National Lawyers Guild. Those memberships suggest ongoing involvement in bar activities, continuing legal education, and professional networks across two states.
Hutcheon’s practice involves matters that require admission in state and federal venues. She appears in district courts and in the bankruptcy court listed among her admissions. Her education and multi-jurisdictional standing allow her to address legal issues that cross state lines and federal boundaries. She brings an academic background that includes international study to the procedural and substantive work that comes with litigation and court filings.
Colleagues describe her work as steady and procedural, oriented around the requirements of courtroom advocacy and court practice. She maintains an active role at Skoloff & Wolfe, P.C., handling filings and appearances in the jurisdictions where she is admitted. Her current practice concentrates on matters litigated in New Jersey and New York state and federal courts.
