Robert Boedeker received his license in 2011 and has been practicing family law since then, including 8 years as the supervising attorney of the family law department at Legal Services of Eastern Missouri, Inc. from 2017 to 2025.

In law school he was recognized after his first year as a Sonnenschein Public Service Scholar and received the school's Public Service Award at graduation for his work with the legal clinics.
