Samantha Feltenz, Law Clerk MMFLG

Samantha Feltenz is a law clerk at Miles Mason Family Law Group, PLC.  She is currently a student at the University of Memphis, Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law.  So far, her favorite law school class has been Contracts, but she is looking forward to taking Family Law this Fall.  She became interested in family law when her mother and stepfather adopted her two younger siblings after fostering them for six years.  Samantha received her undergraduate degree from the University of Iowa in 2018, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and minored in Social Work.  Go Hawkeyes!  Although she considers herself an Iowan at heart, Samantha grew up in the small town of Milledgeville, Illinois with her seven siblings.  In her free time, you can usually find her hiking and fishing with her boyfriend and two dogs at Shelby Farms Park.

Sam began with the MMFLG in May 2019.

Why law school? When my little siblings were in the foster care system before my parents were able to adopt them, I became fascinated with the whole legal process and knew I wanted to become a lawyer to advocate for children and families.

Three words that best describe me: Positive, Energetic, Competitive

My final death row meal:  My stepdad’s homemade meatloaf and mashed potatoes. And for dessert, my mom’s red velvet cake.

Coolest place I’ve ever been: Hoover Dam

If I could go anywhere after law school graduation for free, it would be: Off the grid, probably in a nice cabin somewhere in the woods.
