In September, 1882, Reynolds located to Des Moines, Iowa, where he was employed by a large farm implement manufacturer for two years. He returned to Painesville where he practiced alone until 1889, when he began a partnership with Judge Perry Bosworth, who died in 1890. He partnered with C.W.

From 1891 to 1896, Reynolds was probate judge of Lake County. In 1896 and 1898, he was elected mayor of Painesville. In the summer of 1897, he was nominated at the Republican county convention for representative to the Ohio House. He won the general election, and served in the 73rd General Assembly, (1898–1899), and was re-elected to the 74th, (1900–1901).[2] In the 74th General Assembly, he was chosen Speaker of the Ohio House.[3] In 1909, he was appointed by the Governor to a vacancy on the common pleas bench.[1]
