About Philip
Philip Becher earned his law degree from the University of St. Thomas, Minnesota School of Law. He moved through the classroom and clinic work that law school offers and left prepared for courtroom and office practice. The J.D. from St. Thomas anchors a practice grounded in regional law and procedure.
After law school Becher joined Sand Law. He serves there as a lawyer and handles client matters spanning two state jurisdictions. He is admitted to practice in Minnesota and North Dakota, a credential set that shapes the geography of his work. Those admissions require familiarity with both states’ rules and court systems, and Becher carries that procedural knowledge into his day-to-day practice.
Becher maintains professional ties through the Minnesota Association for Justice. He keeps current on developments that matter to trial practice and civil procedure by participating in association programs. Those activities offer regular contact with peers and ongoing access to continuing legal education.
Colleagues describe Becher as pragmatic in approach. He favors clear legal writing and careful preparation. He prepares pleadings, attends hearings, and meets with clients to outline options. Casework requires attention to deadlines and to local practice norms. He handles those practical demands inside Sand Law’s office and in the courtroom when matters require it.
He balances the demands of practice with the administrative and ethical responsibilities of licensed lawyers. Being admitted in two states means following two sets of professional rules and staying current on licensing and reporting obligations. That dual-admission status influences how he handles filings, client communications, and case strategy across state lines.
Becher’s work sits within the structure of Sand Law, PLLC. He engages in the firm’s intake and case management processes, coordinating with colleagues on matters that cross jurisdictional lines. He also participates in continuing legal education events offered by professional organizations and attends regional court proceedings as a practicing attorney.
He is a member of the Minnesota Association for Justice and practices as a lawyer at Sand Law, PLLC, serving clients across Minnesota and North Dakota.
