    Outstanding Lawyer and Person
    Jetton & Meredith’s Attorney Cannady is an outstanding lawyer and person. After being caught off guard with a civil matter, I found Jetton & Meredith, PLLC. Attorney Cannady reached out within an hour, and I knew within 10 seconds this is the guy I need. He was able to ensure I was protected and got the civil matter dropped, all the time keeping me informed and calm. Would I recommend Jetton & Meredith? Yes, and if I need attorney services again Jetton & Meredith will be my first call.

    Highly Recommend Attorney Shepard

    Rage Fury
    These guys are legit.
    Where do I begin? First off, when my small business was summoned to small claims court, I was nervous. Number one, about the situation in general. Number two, finding a good lawyer who would take such a small claims style case (which to me, this was the biggest case in the world). I found exactly who I was looking for with Jetton and Meredith! Shaefer and Mark handled my case with more professionalism than I could've asked for. Shaefer walked me through the process. Listened to what the case was. He was confident in my innocence, which was a major relief! Shaefer presented my case to the court better than I could even comprehend. He was able to show the court rather quickly that there was indeed no case and it was then dismissed. I know firsthand had I tried to do this alone, it would have yielded a much different outcome. Long story short, these guys are legit. These reviews are solid and are from actual results. Lastly, their pricing was a good value, all things considered. Thanks again, guys! - Tyler

    Mr. Timothy is The Boss!
    Mr. Timothy is The Boss! Even if you know NOTHING about the law, your life will be safe in the hands of Mr. Timothy. Trust me, look no further. You’ll only regret it if you don’t hire him. I pray GOD places him in a higher place. He has great things up ahead for him, and this man truly loves what he does. Thank you, kindly.

    Mark Jetton is a master of his craft.
    Mark Jetton is a master of his craft. I was immediately at ease as he took control of my disputed parking ticket. Without hesitation, he took it to trial and within minutes, the judge declared me not guilty and everything was resolved. It's always a pleasure to see a master at work and he will always be my first call. It's not just Mark. I've called J&M with several questions about my business and personal issues over the years and have always received prompt, professional, and sound counsel. They are the best there is!

    Fantastic Job in a Trial Case
    Mark Jetton did a fantastic job in a trial case for us. I have studied law abroad; I have seen many lawyers, I could vouch for Mark Jetton’s integrity, inclusiveness, thoroughness, and determination. Mr. Jetton is outstanding in extracting the truth from a complex wrap of lies. He sticks to the points that are needed for the case, he never wasted a single minute or word in issues that are not related to the case. (He did not get carried away by the flimsy tactics of the opponent). Mr. Jetton is gentle, courteous, and very respectful to everyone including the opponent side witness, but he knows what to ask and how to extract the truth from a master liar. My situation was unique, and it was the most complex, a single mishap could cause an irreversible loss in our lifetime, Mr. Jetton did not give up, fielded the right questions, and won the case. His patience is most admirable. He also has an excellent team at his office, they are always friendly, courteous, welcoming, and helpful. I wish him good luck and may God bless him and his Team.

    UNBELIEVABLE Results!
    Hi, my name is Patrick, and I just recently had a wonderful experience in dealing with Mark Jetton and his staff. As usual, Mark was his usual down-to-earth self and makes you feel very comfortable in dealing with important matters, and another person in his firm, Chera, is so conscientious and concerned in dealing with you. I was involved in a car accident and they explained the process and knowledge on how I will have a successful outcome, the results in my own words, UNBELIEVABLE!!!!😊 They even saved me money, YES, I highly recommend Jetton & Meredith for all your attorney needs.
    Patrick Pope
    Can't recommend highly enough
    I can't recommend Jetton & Meredith highly enough. Tragedy struck my family in 2023 and Mark Jetton and his team made me feel at ease on our very first meeting. After working with them for almost 2 years, I can honestly say that they are detail oriented, communicative, friendly, and will work hard to get you the desired outcome that you're looking for. Thank you again, Mark, Chera, and Courtney!
    Glenn J Pavan
    I Trusted Them the Entire Time
    My horrible accident that I thought would destroy my life was put at ease INSTANTLY after speaking with Chera. She is FANTASTIC. There was never a moment of doubt. I trusted them the entire time. Thank god for people like Chera and Mark, who stand up for the people.
    Patrick Glover
    Fought Tirelessly for Every Dollar
    I can't thank Mark Jetton and Chera Pardue enough for their dedication and professionalism in handling my case. After being involved in a devastating wreck, I quickly realized how ruthless insurance companies can be. Despite all their marketing, State Farm's priority was paying as little as possible. Thanks to Mark and Chera, I didn’t have to face them alone. From day one, they fought tirelessly to ensure I received every dollar I deserved. Their expertise, strategic approach, and unwavering commitment led to a final settlement that was 135% higher than the initial offer SF tried to settle with. Their guidance and advocacy gave me peace of mind during a difficult time, and I’m incredibly grateful for their support. If you’re looking for a personal injury lawyer who truly puts your best interests first, I highly recommend Mark and Chera. They are knowledgeable, compassionate, and relentless in pursuing justice for their clients.
    Josh Watson
    Grateful for Mark and Chera's Support
    Our son (16) was in a car accident, not his fault, where his girlfriend (15) was killed. It is the call every parent is terrified to get. Mark and Chera were there for our son, and us. They walked us through everything, including being there for our son during the criminal trial of the other driver. Mark and Chera worked for us like they were part of the family. They listened, they advised, and they fought for us. We are extremely grateful for everything they did for our son. If we ever need a lawyer in the future, we will be going to Mark Jetton first.

    Supportive and Helpful
    This is my second time working with this law firm and working with Attorney Jetton and his paralegal Chera! Throughout my whole personal injury case, Chera has been so supportive and helpful in answering all questions I have and keeping me informed on everything that is occurring. Chera was great at communicating with me and making sure any questions I had were answered in a timely manner, even if it came from Attorney Jetton! I always suggest them to anyone for any services that they may offer. Thank you so much for everything over this past almost 2 years. It has been a pleasure speaking with you both and working with you both. I truly appreciate everything you have done with my case!!
    Kieara Foreman
    Incredible Help During a Difficult Time
    I want to extend a huge thank you to Chera and Mark for their incredible help during such a difficult time. After my car crash, they made the entire process of dealing with the insurance company so much smoother and less stressful. Chera, I especially appreciate you for always being in constant communication with me and for getting back to me promptly every time I had a question. Your dedication and support truly made all the difference. Thank you both for everything!
    Ronda Kiser
    Excellence Beyond Standards
    Jetton and Meredith far exceed any standard rating scale for excellence. From my very first contact with the firm, I received outstanding customer service. Shortly thereafter, I had the pleasure of working with my paralegal, Chera Pardue. She took the time to educate me on every step of the legal process and ensured that I remained well informed throughout the progression of my case. Chera advocated tirelessly on my behalf and pursued the maximum outcome because she believed that it was what I rightfully deserved. She is the type of paralegal anyone would want handling their case. Choosing Jetton and Meredith was one of the best decisions I have made. I am truly grateful for the resolution of my accident case, particularly because it was not a straightforward matter. I deeply appreciate Attorney Mark Jetton, Jr. and Chera for their dedication, professionalism, and commitment to representing me with excellence.
    Cedric Steele
    Price and Petho got me back on my feet

    Ogechi Onukogu
    Chera was beyond amazing
    Working with Chera and Mark could not have been a better choice! After being in my first car wreck, I was lost. I knew nothing about the legal/financial aspect of anything. I found Jetton & Meredith, and I cannot even describe how much their support and efforts made such a difference. Chera was beyond amazing to work with. She constantly kept me updated with any new information/inquiries. She had no problem explaining things to me more than once, or breaking them down for me to get the full understanding. She became like a friend and always someone I looked forward to hearing from. She takes it beyond the job, even sending kind holiday greetings & just reaching out to you as a person, not a chore. I HIGHLY recommend choosing Chera and Mark! Great work guys!
    Jacque McDonough
    Big Thank You to My Attorney Mark
    I have to give a big thank you to my attorney Mark and my week-to-week contact with the best paralegal Chera handling my auto accident case. Mark - He really takes the time to explain the process and your physical goals, being the top priority followed by getting you the most amount which he will. Chera - A huge thank you as your knowledge played a huge role and just the week-to-week communication in the process, making sure you had every document needed to process and checking in on me.
    Mario Morales
    Wonderful to work with Mark and Chera
    I had a privilege to work with Mark and Chera. A family member mentioned them to me when I got into my car accident. I was all the way in Raleigh, so we had to communicate via email and phone, but the communication with each other was like if I was in Charlotte. I cannot express how wonderful it was to work with them. They made it as smooth as possible for me and being young and having to take care of it on my own, they were able to break everything down for me. Chera was the sweetest at making me feel comfortable with everything. She answered all my emails/texts/calls within the same day. I was never left hanging. I definitely recommend Jetton & Meredith, specifically Mark and Chera!
    Nathalie Garcia
    Great Experience with Jetton & Meredith

Chera had strong communication and brought a high level of expertise that gave me peace of mind knowing my case was in good hands. Mark offered helpful and unbiased advice along the way that ultimately led to a favorable outcome. I would highly recommend Jetton & Meredith to anyone in need of a lawyer and know I would turn to Chera and Mark if I am ever in a similar position again. Thanks for making the process a breeze!
    Austin M
    Best Decision for My Child and Me
    Working with Mark Jetton and Chera Pardue was the best decision I could've made for myself and my child. We were hit by an uninsured driver and sustained injuries. A coworker referred me to Jetton & Meredith and told me not to go through this process alone. From the moment we met with Mark and Chera, they made us feel comfortable and confident in our case. They made it easy for my son and me to recover, relax and get healthy while they took on the hard work. I will be referring all my friends, family, and coworkers to Jetton & Meredith! With the way people drive in Charlotte, you too should have Jetton & Meredith on your side!

    I highly recommend them!
    This is the first time I ever went through something like this. I had the privilege to work with Mark and Chera for my personal injury case. They kept me informed throughout my case and helped me find the best resolution. Chera, as my caseworker, kept me updated and was very thorough. I highly recommend Jetton and Meredith Law Firm. Thank you for your help!

    Not Guilty "I Got a DWI the Summer Before Going to College"

    A well-known graduate of a local high school in Charlotte was attending a party at a friend’s house when he decided to drive home that Friday night. What he thought was five minutes down the road turned into a five-hour long trip to a jail cell. Client was not driving poorly or swerving across lanes, but was going 50mph in a 35mph zone. Police pulled him over, smelled weed, and found residue in the vehicle. Additionally, the cop noticed that client had a green tongue which led the police to arrest the client for driving while impaired. Client hired Attorney Mark S. Jetton, Jr. because he was not pleading guilty and having this on his record forever. Attorney Jetton took it to trial and received a not guilty verdict because the State could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that client was driving while under the influence of an impairing substance.

    Dismissed "Street Racer" Falsely Accused of Racing on the Streets of Charlotte

    On April 2, 2021, Jetton and Meredith’s client was purportedly charged with two separate counts of prearranged street competition. A detective who had “firsthand” knowledge and experience dealing with prearranged racing believed he saw Jetton and Meredith’s client racing a 2021 Ford Super Duty Pick-up truck. When client was arrested and thrown in jail, client called Mark S. Jetton, Jr. to handle his case. Immediately, Mr. Jetton was able to get his vehicle which was seized improperly by a search warrant. After two years of rigorous case review, the case was in superior court. Mr. Jetton was able to convince the District Attorney’s Office that his client did not commit this charged offense. Mr. Jetton was able to show that the driver of the vehicle at the time that the races were taking place was not his client.

    Dismissed 16 year old girl charged with driving after consuming while under 21 years old.

    On a normal New Year’s Day in 2022, client was traveling to McDonalds to get some food when she was abruptly cut off by another man driving at an erratic speed. When the client honked her horn, the man brake checked client and proceeded to follow client to the McDonalds. In the parking lot, the 16 year old client was flashed a gun and had her mirror ripped off. In complete shock and terror, the client stopped in front of a State Highway Patrolman’s home coincidentally. Once the patrolman found out what happened, he called for backup. When backup arrived, the other patrolman believed the client had been drinking and charged her with a DWI. Mark S. Jetton, Jr. was able to negotiate and find holes in the State’s case to earn the 16 year old girl a dismissal of the DWI charge. This allowed the client to keep her license.

    Dismissed 19-Year-Old Kid Abused by a Court Issued Domestic Violence Protective Order.

    After graduating high school and excited for college, 19-year-old client had a girlfriend of one year that he was excited to spend the summer with. Because of the unknown future for either of them...their relationship took a turn for the worst. After a consented order agreed upon by both parties was issued, client’s girlfriend took out criminal charges (the highest misdemeanor charges in North Carolina). Client picked up the phone and called Jetton and Meredith legal team. The alleged victim explained that client was communicating with her through a discord chat room in which she set up. When appearing in court for client, Mark S. Jetton, Jr. was able to shine light on the lies and get client’s case completely dismissed and off client’s record.

    Dismissed 34-year-old Finance Manager Charged with Driving Reckless and going 36 MPH Over the Speed Limit

    Estimated at traveling 100 mph on I-85 in Charlotte, NC, Jetton and Meredith’s client was lasered from 961 ft. Faced with the real change of losing his license, he turned to Mark S. Jetton, Jr. for help. Upon review the case, Mr. Jetton used his proven strategic methods to negotiate with the Mecklenburg County District Attorney’s Office to get the case dismissed.

    Dismissed 3AM Run to Cook Out Restaurant Turns Into Near Disaster When Driver Falls Asleep

    A man on a mission was interrupted when he passed out at 3:00 in the morning in line at the drive-thru for a late night burger at Cook Out. The police got curious about the sleeping customer and questioned him. He responded that he "drank a lot" of alcohol and that he shouldn't be driving. The officers gave him several field sobriety tests and arrested him for Driving While Impaired, finding an open container in the car. Once at the station he blew a .10 BAC on the intoxilyzer. Facing the fallout from his fast food foray, the man wisely hired Jetton and Meredith. Attorney Shaefer Shepard realized that the state would need two officers to prove their case. When both officers failed to show up to court at the trial date without a good excuse, the judge denied the state's motion to continue and the prosecutor dismissed the case.

    Your Questions, Answered
    • Can I waive spousal support?
      Yes, spousal support rights can be waived, typically through a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement. Both parties must agree to the waiver in writing, and the agreement must be deemed fair and entered into voluntarily by both parties. It is beneficial to have legal representation during this process to ensure that your rights are protected and the agreement is enforceable.
    • How long does spousal support last?
      The duration of spousal support varies and depends on factors such as the length of the marriage and the financial independence of the lower-earning spouse. In some cases, it may be temporary and end once the recipient becomes self-sufficient. In others, it may be permanent, particularly in long-term marriages where one spouse may not be able to become fully financially independent.
    • What is spousal support?
      Spousal support, also known as alimony, is a financial payment from one spouse to another after separation or divorce. Its purpose is to help the lower-earning spouse maintain a similar standard of living to that enjoyed during the marriage. The amount and duration depend on various factors, including the length of the marriage and the needs and financial resources of each party.
    • Is spousal support taxable?
      As of changes in 2019, spousal support payments are not taxable to the recipient nor tax-deductible for the payer in the United States. However, tax laws can vary. It is advisable to consult a tax professional to understand how spousal support affects your taxes in your specific jurisdiction.
