Absolutely the best,
Mark Jetton is a miracle worker! He represented me on two occasions for charges that (to me) were indefensible and a sure conviction. He got both dismissed without me ever having to even stand before the judge! Not only that but during the whole process Mark and his staff made me feel comfortable a...

Great Lawyer
Last March I was charged with a horrible DWI, hit and run, careless and wreckless, and a carrying a concealed weapon charge. I had never been in trouble like this before which meant that I had no idea who I would hire to be my lawyer. I decided to trust all the internet research I did and called Mark...

"I endorse this lawyer."
"Mark is one of the hardest working attorneys I have ever had the pleasure of working with. If there is an issue with your case that can be won at trial, he will try it. If there is an issue with your case that warrants a dismissal or reduction, Mark will spot that issue and work tirelessly on your behalf to get your matter resolved in your favor. Additionally, Mark maintains a firm grasp on the ever-changing laws in the State of NC, and deals very well with both prosecutors and judges alike. I highly recommend Mark to anyone in need of a Criminal Defense attorney in the Charlotte Metro area."

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2014.
Reprimand issued in NC, 2014
updated on 01/24/2015Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
“I was reprimanded for an advertising violation. This reprimand was ONLY about advertising and had NOTHING to do with mishandling a clients case or legal matter. The advertising state bar rules are very unclear. One part of my violation was because my firm letterhead font was not as large as the words "this is an advertisement for legal services." This gives you an idea of what type of things the state bar will violate you for. My firm and I put forth the utmost ethics in handling clients cases”
