Alton Edmond was born on August 5, 1989 and raised in Harlem just outside of Clewiston, Florida. His humble upbringing by his single mother on a fixed income pushed him to pursue academic excellence. He maintained the GPA to earn a top ten percent ranking in his graduating class while playing four sports and working several odd jobs, including a job as a McDonalds crew member. Consequently, he graduated from Clewiston High School with honors in 2007.
He went on to attend the University of Florida where he graduated in May of 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts in Criminology and Sociology with a Minor in Education, becoming the first male in his mother or father's lineage to ever obtain a college degree. Thereafter, Alton Edmond enrolled at Florida A & M College of Law and graduated in May 2014 with his Juris Doctor Degree becoming the first in his family to obtain a terminal degree.
Upon his graduation from Florida A & M College of Law he took the July 2014 Florida Bar Exam and passed it on his first attempt. In doing so he achieved his dream of becoming a licensed attorney when he was cleared to practice law on December 2, 2014 at the age of 25, which he had aspired to since the age of 5. Alton worked for several firms gaining experience until founding Edmond Law in 2017, which currently advocates on behalf of individuals and businesses. As an attorney, business owner, motivational speaker, college professor and entertainer, he desires to continue sharpening his litigation skills while remaining committed to involvement and contributions to the betterment of his community.
