Joe grew up and graduated from high school in Dell Rapids, South Dakota. After receiving his undergraduate degree at the University of South Dakota’s Beacom School of Business in 2014, Joe continued his education in Vermillion and graduated from the University of South Dakota School of Law with honors in 2017. While in law school, Joe was a member of the Moot Court Board, participated on the Trial Team, and was the treasurer of the Student Bar Association. After law school, Joe served as a law clerk for the First Judicial Circuit of the State of South Dakota. Following his clerkship, in 2018 Joe and his family moved to Watertown, and Joe began working at Schoenbeck Law, PC. Joe is admitted to practice law in South Dakota in both State and Federal court. Since beginning his practice, Joe has argued multiple cases to the South Dakota Supreme Court and represented his clients in jury trials and court trials. In 2020 and 2021, the South Dakota Trial Lawyers Association (SDTLA) elected Joe to serve on the group’s Board of Governors. In 2020, the SDTLA awarded Joe with a “Toast of the Trial Lawyers” for his efforts on behalf of the group. Outside of spending time with his family, Joe enjoys all of South Dakota’s outdoor activities, including pheasant hunting with his dogs, deer hunting, golfing, and fishing local lakes and the Missouri River.
