Clay Ballenger
When you are accused of a crime or DUI, it can feel like the entire system is stacked against you. Police officers, prosecutors, and investigators are all working to build a case, while you are left wondering who is actually working for you.
At The Edge Law Firm, the answer is clear. We put decades of law enforcement and investigative experience on your side. Unlike most firms, we have a full-time investigator. Clay Ballenger, a retired Tulsa Police lieutenant and U.S. Army combat veteran, brings unmatched knowledge of how cases are built, where mistakes are made, and how evidence can be mishandled. Now, he uses that experience to defend clients and protect their rights.
For you, that means:
- Immediate action. Clay gathers evidence right away, speaks with witnesses, and secures details the state may ignore.
- Leveling the field. He knows how police reports are written and where to find errors, inconsistencies, or missing information that can weaken the prosecution’s case.
- Uncovering the truth. From faulty testing to overlooked witnesses, Clay identifies the details that others miss.
Clay is more than an investigator. He is an active member of his community, mentoring those who need guidance the most. His commitment to service extends beyond the courtroom. In 2025, he was elected Commander of American Legion Post 1 in Tulsa, the largest and oldest post in Oklahoma. This role continues his 30-year commitment to The American Legion, where he supports veterans, promotes patriotism, and advocates for strong national security.
His work has also been recognized publicly. Clay’s investigations have been featured on local news and the A&E series Accused: Guilty or Innocent?, where he appeared alongside attorney Jason Edge. In that case, his findings were instrumental in securing a favorable outcome for the client.
