About Joel Barjenbruch

Joel Barjenbruch is a financial planner who keeps things simple, honest, and grounded in genuine relationships. Since beginning his career in 2007 and launching his practice in 2010, Joel has grown JS Financial, Inc. into a well-respected firm trusted by clients nationwide for retirement and wealth planning. His philosophy is simple: the client always comes first.

With offices in both Lincoln and Omaha, Joel works with individuals, business owners, and their families, helping them create comprehensive retirement plans and manage risk following a fiduciary standard. He’s not about selling products. He takes the time to listen, understand your goals, and build a strategy that fits who you are.

From Local Roots to Valued Advisor

Joel grew up in Nebraska and graduated from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. He now lives in Lincoln with his wife, Stacey, and their three children: Celia, Warren, and Joy. They are active members of Southwood Lutheran Church, where Joel has served on the church council, including as president.

Being rooted means everything to Joel. He’s not just a financial planner; he’s your neighbor down the street, your kid’s YMCA coach across town, or the guy you talked to for an hour at last week’s Husker game or local wine event.

Joel remembers your name, checks in to see how you’re doing, and ensures you never feel like just another client.
