About Rebecca
Rebecca Kilmon earned her J.D. from Elon University School of Law in 2019. She completed a rigorous curriculum and left law school equipped for federal practice. Early in her career she moved quickly into a federal clerkship that shaped her view of the bench and bar.
She served as a law clerk to The Honorable Sherry R. Fallon at the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. That period placed her inside the daily workings of a busy federal docket. She observed opinion drafting, case management and the cadence of pretrial litigation first-hand. The clerkship also offered sustained exposure to federal procedure and the practical pressures judges face when addressing complex disputes.
After the clerkship Kilmon entered private practice. She is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. Those admissions reflect a regional practice footprint that spans state and federal forums in the mid-Atlantic. Colleagues describe her approach as methodical; she balances attention to detail with an awareness of the larger litigation strategy.
Kilmon maintains current memberships in professional associations. She participates in bar-related programming and continues to engage with peers across jurisdictions. That involvement keeps her informed of changes in procedure and emerging case law that affect litigators in the region.
She joined Morris James LLP after her clerkship. At the firm she has worked on matters that require coordination across state lines and, when appropriate, in federal court. She brings the perspective of a former federal clerk to case assessment and briefing, and she often handles tasks that demand careful legal research and precise drafting.
Outside the courtroom Kilmon’s path has been steady and practical. She moved from law school to a federal clerkship and then into firm practice in a short span. That sequence gave her a mix of courtroom observation and client-side experience early in her career. She currently practices at Morris James LLP, handling matters across Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.
