Mark Jetton is knowledgeable, confident & very capable in the courtroom. My family relocated to the Charlotte area 8 months ago and ended up with some very unexpected charges stemming from a neighbor dispute. Mark was very responsive and hands on through each hearing and a one day of trial. I have be...en a paralegal for 20 years working alongside some of Palm Beach County FL's best trial attorneys and can say that Mark is very skilled at what he does. His staff is professional and caring - a direct reflection of how he treats his clients. Mark won my trial & went on to have charges that were filed against my Husband dropped at a subsequent hearing. I would highly recommend anyone in need of a lawyer consult with Jetton & Meridith.

My estranged wife found herself to be the accused in a Domestic Violence case that never should have been brought by the State. However, because of the binary way our DV laws are written and because they are very necessary to protect the welfare of those who truly are victims of DV, she was in very ...big trouble…regardless of the circumstances. Rather than use the pro-bono services of a Public Defender, she retained counsel privately on the strength of a recommendation from a friend. As I inquired around, the feedback I got worried me that her attorney might not be strong enough in this area of criminal law or understand the NC Court system well enough to mount an appropriate defense. I engaged Mark to assist in her defense. After our first meeting and from that point forward, I felt like Mark was all over it…like the mission he was charged with in defending her was his most important. He was competent, confident, kept me completely engaged in strategy and updated me regularly on progress in negotiations with the DA’s office. He also collaborated extremely well with the other Attorney she had already engaged. More importantly, I was completely confident in Mark’s commitment to a positive outcome, and in his ability to get it. Once he dug in…which was right away…I knew I had the right Attorney. In the end, the case never saw a courtroom, and Mark was single-handedly successful in getting the case against her dismissed in its entirety. Not many Attorneys I’ve known or worked with over the years are both exceptionally good at what they do AND able to really inspire their clients confidence. Mark does both extremely well, and while I’m hopeful I never need to engage him in a similar matter again in the future, I would…in a New York minute.

Mark did a phenomenal job as our attorney in my wife's DWI case. He was relentless throughout every step of the process and I know for a fact we could not of received a better outcome under the circumstances. He kept us informed every step of the way and worked every angle possible and was even comp...lemented by the judge on what an exceptional job his did arguing her case. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you hire any other attorney in town. He worked tireless hours and we couldn't have been more pleased. It is refreshing to know there are attorneys out there who truly care about your well being and the outcome of the case. 10 out of 10

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... Jetton. I was shocked to get a call back a few hours later on a Saturday night from Mark, telling me that he would come in on the next day (Sunday) to meet with me and go over my case. Being as upset and embarrassed as I was after being arrested, Mark assured me that I was going to be alright and that he was going to help me either fight the case or get the charges reduced as much as he could. After meeting with Mark, I realized why he was one of the best reviewed DWI and criminal lawyers in the country. Mark showed me that he not only took his job extremely seriously but also that he cared about me as a person and not just a client. I requested the court date keep getting pushed back and Mark was able to work the system and get my case extended as long as he possibly could which was around 8 months. I went into the last court date expecting to have the book thrown at me but I was shocked to find out that Mark had worked out a Plea deal where the DWI, Hit and Run, and Careless and Wreckless charges would be thrown out if I plead guilty to the carrying a concealed weapon. I almost started crying tears of joy when I heard that. All I had to do was take the CCW certification course on a Saturday later on that month and give the paperwork to Mark who took care of the rest. I am so thankful to have hired Mark as my lawyer and he is the only one I will ever recommend in the future!

I hired Mark after two lawyers I was not happy with related to some domestic violence misdemeanor charges. These other lawyers promised that they would review the evidence from the DA, however ended-up not reviewing them and brought me "deals" that were based on their conversations with the ADAs. I... was extremely frustrated with this, as I felt they were looking to just get a deal and move-on. Mark is a trial lawyer, and he was not afraid to take the case to court, and then to appeal if need be. His strategy and conversations with the ADAs were with an eye towards not just the primary case but also the appeal. The other lawyers I hired were not interested in appeal - they approached it as if this was a one and done thing. And especially due to their non-review of the evidence, I had to accept a plea deal for a previous charge which, in hindsight, had I hired Mark, I would not have accepted. Mark is no-BS, presentable, and on-point. He was also very responsive. He has a good rappor with the ADAs, but is not afraid to play hard ball, and makes this known. I have very high respect for Mark. I would hire him again, in a heart-beat. And for anyone trying to evaluate lawyers out there, pick a "trial-lawyer", and pick a lawyer that is talking to you about appeal if necessary. I only wish I had hired Mark for my prior (misdemeanor) cases as well.
