About Jack F.
Jack F. DeGree built a career at the intersection of numbers and law. He completed a B.S. in accounting, followed by an M.S. in accounting, and went on to earn a J.D., all from the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. The sequence of degrees gave him a deep grounding in financial analysis before he turned fully to legal practice.
Early in his career he combined those skills in practice. He is a Certified Public Accountant, licensed by the Colorado State Board of Accountancy, and he brought that credential into his legal work. That background often informs how he approaches cases, especially when financial records and regulatory detail matter.
DeGree is admitted to practice in Nevada and Washington and is also admitted to practice before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Those admissions allow him to handle matters at both the state level and in federal appellate proceedings. He has practiced at Eglet Prince, where his responsibilities have included litigation and case development that draw on both accounting and legal analysis.
He maintains memberships in local and state bar organizations. He is a current member of the Nevada Justice Association and the Clark County Bar Association. These affiliations keep him connected to developments in litigation practice and to the professional community in Nevada.
Colleagues describe his approach as methodical. He tends to focus on the documents and the numbers behind a dispute. That means tracing ledgers, evaluating expert reports, and preparing the factual record in ways that make financial issues clear to judges and juries. He also works on procedural aspects, preparing briefs and appearing in court when matters require advocacy beyond the initial fact-gathering stage.
Clients who require an accountant’s eye in a courtroom setting are the natural fit for his services. He is comfortable translating technical financial details into legal arguments and presenting them in plain terms. He handles both discovery work and trial preparation, and he participates in appellate matters when an earlier ruling needs further review.
He currently practices at Eglet Prince, where his work often involves legal issues that intersect with accounting and financial analysis.
