Welchem: I am assuming Leining wanted to write "zu welchem" or "von welchem", and left out the zu or von. Welchem in this case would refer to Fredersdorf himself who taught him the Fredersdorf method, after all.
Viele Obligation: he's thinking in German. Viele Schuldigkeit, die Schuldigkeit/Obligation, i.e. "die", Femininum.
Von Ihnen - he's using the formal address to Fredersdorf in the correct grammar rather than the plural for something else. If he's vous-ing Fredersdorf and wants to say "I've learned much from you", then it is "von Ihnen gelernt".
m as an ending for gutem und bösem is correct, he's using the Dativ after all. (So the Fredersdorf method includes playing both good and bad cop in interrogations, does it? Figures.)

Thank you! I couldn't make this construction grammatical in my head, but I always hesitate to question native speakers, as you know.

You mean the Mike method. ;)
