About Samuel J.

Samuel J. Farris emerged from Villanova with a business degree in 2012 and stayed there to complete his law degree in 2016. He arrived at law school after completing a B.B.A., and the move into law came quickly. Classrooms and casebooks at Villanova shaped his early legal thinking and set the stage for practice in Pennsylvania.

After earning his J.D., Farris entered private practice. He joined Reger Rizzo & Darnall LLP as an associate. At the firm he has worked alongside more experienced litigators and counsel. His role has involved courtroom preparation, legal research, drafting pleadings and advising clients under firm supervision. The associate position has allowed him to build practical courtroom skills while managing client matters from intake to resolution.

Farris is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania. That statewide credential frames the scope of his work and the jurisdiction where he argues motions and appears in hearings. His academic background in business and law informs an approach that pays attention to both legal detail and the practical implications for clients. He learned the fundamentals of legal analysis at Villanova and translated them into practical work at the firm.

Colleagues describe him as steady in the courtroom and exacting in written work. He has been part of teams handling complex procedural work and discovery disputes. In those roles he has been responsible for organizing exhibits, preparing witness outlines and helping develop case strategy under senior supervision. The tasks require attention to deadlines and strict adherence to court rules. Those are areas where his training and day-to-day practice meet.

Today he is an associate at Reger Rizzo & Darnall LLP. He practices law in Pennsylvania and handles matters under state law for the firm. His current practice focuses on serving clients through litigation and legal advocacy in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
