Prior to joining Feldman Shepherd, Smith was an associate with Kline & Specter, P.C. He has also served as an associate with Saul Ewing, LLP and as an intern to the Honorable Clifford Scott Green, Eastern District of Pennsylvania and the NAACP Branch of Legal Affairs in Philadelphia.
Smith earned a LL.M. in Trial Advocacy and his Juris Doctor from Temple University Beasley School of Law and, by faculty vote, was named the LL.M. program's top-performing student.
