About Reece
Reece Almond earned his law degree from the University of Minnesota Law School in 2012 after completing an undergraduate degree at the University of South Dakota in 2009. Those academic steps put him on a course to practice in the Upper Midwest. The combination of a regional undergraduate education and a Twin Cities law school shaped the legal perspective he brings to clients today.
After receiving his J.D., Almond moved into legal practice in the years that followed. He has built a practice rooted in the two states where he is licensed. Admission to the bars in South Dakota and Minnesota allowed him to take cases and advise clients whose needs cross state lines. His career path has been steady rather than flashy. Colleagues describe him as methodical and direct in handling matters.
Almond belongs to professional associations and maintains active membership in at least one bar-related organization. He keeps current with continuing legal education and the changing rules that affect practice in both states. That steady engagement with the profession informs how he evaluates options and advises clients. He is comfortable working with local court procedures and the federal rules as they apply near the region.
Clients and other lawyers most often encounter Almond on matters that require attentiveness to both South Dakota and Minnesota law. He handles filings, courtroom appearances, and client counseling in jurisdictions where procedural detail matters. Almond’s approach is practical. He breaks complex questions into discrete steps and maps out possible outcomes. That style has guided his work whether preparing documents, arguing before a judge, or negotiating a resolution outside court.
He balances professional obligations with the practical realities of running a law practice in neighboring states. Almond keeps an eye on deadlines and jurisdictional nuances. He communicates directly about timing and options, and he aims to make legal processes intelligible to nonlawyers. He currently practices law in South Dakota and Minnesota, providing legal services to clients in both states.
