About Elton Jenkins
Elton Jenkins has dedicated his legal career to criminal law in Oklahoma since 1999.

This early exposure shaped his understanding of the crucial role a lawyer plays in defending the accused.
Throughout his career, Elton has maintained a focus on thorough preparation and effective case presentation. While he frequently represents clients in trials, he also values negotiation, striving for alternative resolutions like treatment and rehabilitation instead of incarceration.
Elton is committed to providing clear and honest communication, ensuring his clients are informed and less anxious during the legal process. His experience includes 12 years as a major crimes trial attorney with the Oklahoma Indigent Defense System, where he handled approximately 150 major crime cases annually, including sexual assault, robbery, and murder.
Beyond criminal defense, Elton offers legal assistance in family law and personal injury cases. Notably, he secured a $1.2 million judgment in a car accident trial.
