Our Story
Founded by husband and wife, father and mother, A C Wharton, Jr. and Ruby R. Wharton, in 1980, the mission and tradition cultivated from day one were focused on providing quality representation with the utmost integrity. Forty-one years later, these principles remain at forefront of our mission to each and every client we serve. The Firm has always maintained an emphasis on empowering this community both in the customized representation of its clients and taking on causes of significant public interest in order to create a lasting impact for generations to come. The small-town values of service and hard work innately ingrained in the fabric of our founders have set the culture for how we serve our clients. Our Firm has been blessed over the years to develop lawyers who have gone on to become judges and entrepreneurs and even founder, A C Wharton, Jr., serving as Mayor of Shelby County and Memphis. After nearly twenty four years in business, the Wharton Law Firm expanded with the Wharton sons joining the law practice and management team beginning in 2004.
