EXPERIENCE:
Justin Smith joined Woods Fuller, a Sioux Falls law firm in 2006 and focuses his practice on litigation, specializing in trusts and estates, estate planning, commercial, workers’ compensation, as well as additional legal services. He also acts as a government relations specialist and lobbyist, spending the South Dakota legislative session each year lobbying on behalf of firm clients.
Justin Smith completed the Leadership Sioux Falls program and serves on the Issues Management Council for the Greater Sioux Falls Area Chamber of Commerce. He serves as the Chair of the Sioux Falls Charter Revision Commission. Justin has served in various roles in the community, including on the Boards of Directors for Boy Scouts of America Sioux Council, Volunteers of America, and St. Francis House, and he is the Past President of the Second Circuit Bar Association and serves actively on the Board of the South Dakota Defense Lawyers Association. Justin also currently serves as the County Committeeman for the Central Committee for the Lincoln County Republican Party and as Lincoln County Precinct Committeeman. Additionally, Justin is a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Federalist Society, and Civil Air Patrol, serving as the Legal Officer for the South Dakota Wing.
Having traveled much as a child, Justin is glad he, his wife, and their four children have settled in South Dakota. Beyond travel, being the son of an army officer also created a life-long interest in politics and government. He loves being part of the Woods Fuller law team, and working with “some of the most experienced and accomplished professionals in the State of South Dakota.”
