Samuel Friedfeld is an Associate Attorney with Rooney McBride & Smith, LLC. He is licensed to practice law in Missouri and focuses his practice on family and domestic relations law. He represents clients in fact-intensive and emotionally charged disputes, guiding them through each stage of litigation with practical advice, careful preparation, and strong courtroom advocacy.
Samuel brings a litigation-centered approach to his practice, with experience handling domestic relations matters across the state of Missouri. Before returning to full-time legal practice, Samuel worked in legal and regulatory compliance roles with several financial services companies, where he developed experience in risk assessment, regulatory analysis, due diligence, and written advocacy. That background sharpened the analytical and problem-solving skills he now applies to complex family law matters involving financial issues, parental rights, and child welfare concerns.
Samuel earned his Juris Doctor from New York Law School in 2018, where he received multiple academic scholarships and served as President of the Sports Law Society. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Sports Management from New York University, where he was a Dean’s List student and NCAA student-athlete in wrestling. While in law school, he also gained experience in trademark, commercial, and intellectual property matters through clinic and internship positions.
Outside the office, Samuel enjoys playing the drums, exploring the Ozarks on his motorcycle, and competing in paintball tournaments.
