Clayton Lawyers

AV Preeminent Rating by Martindale-Hubbell (Highest Rating for Ethical Standards and Legal Ability according to reviewing Lawyers and Judges)

I understand what it is like to struggle. I grew up poor and I have worked for everything that I have. My father was a steel worker and my grandfather was a sharecropper. Growing up I did not know anyone that had been to college, much less law school. Growing up I didn't think that a poor kid such as myself could even be a lawyer. A Sunday school teacher was the first person that suggested to me that I could be lawyer, that Sunday school teacher's confidence in me changed the course of my life.

I'm attorney Elton Jenkins. Since 1999, I have practiced criminal law in Oklahoma. Growing up on the southwest side of Oklahoma City, I saw people close to me face criminal charges. I quickly learned why people accused of a crime need a lawyer on their side.
