About LeAnn D.
LeAnn D. Ellis practices law in Oklahoma and has built a career that blends legal training with an undergraduate grounding in accounting. She is based at Ellis & Ellis and has worked both as a partner there and in other roles within the Oklahoma legal community.
Ellis earned her J.D. from the University of Oklahoma in 1991. She completed her undergraduate studies at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, graduating in 1987 with a B.S. in Accounting. Those academic years set the foundation for a career that spans more than three decades and crosses the boundary between business and legal practice.
Her professional path includes a period in 2014 when she served as of counsel to GableGotwals in Tulsa, Oklahoma. That role sat alongside her ongoing ties to Ellis & Ellis, where she is listed as a partner. Over time she has moved between firm responsibilities and affiliated counsel work, a pattern that reflects both private practice responsibilities and collaborative arrangements with larger firms.
Ellis is admitted to practice in Oklahoma. Her combined training in law and accounting appears repeatedly in descriptions of her professional profile. The accounting degree is a clear complement to legal work that touches on financial or business matters, and it informs how she approaches client files and analysis. She has spent her career practicing in-state and maintaining a visible presence within the Oklahoma bar.
Colleagues describe her as a steady presence in firm leadership roles, and clients have found continuity in her shift between partnerships and of-counsel positions. She has practiced through changes in the legal market and through evolving client needs, maintaining a focus on practical problem solving rather than on headlines or public recognition.
Today she continues at Ellis & Ellis in Oklahoma. She practices law from that office and represents clients whose matters require legal experience grounded in both accounting and law.
