About

I’m a proud, native North Carolinian. I grew up in Greensboro and got to attend UNC Chapel Hill for college. During those years, I was involved pretty heavily in my church, different community service groups, and soccer. After college, I went to Liberty University School of Law, passed the California bar exam, and joined a talent agency as an agent’s assistant in Los Angeles. After a few months in the position, I realized I wanted to practice law and live in the south. So, I moved back to North Carolina. Shortly after returning, I took the North Carolina bar exam and joined the NC State Bar. About a year and a half later, I met Matthew Weaver in Columbia, SC and we started this firm in Charlotte. One of the primary reasons I started this firm was because I noticed, and wanted to help fight, a problem that happens every day in criminal law. I don’t know whether it’s systemic or reflects misplaced goals in our legal system but once you see someone go into the court system, you rarely see them get out. And so, as a criminal defense attorney, I set two goals for my firm. The first is fairly simple. If you’re innocent, Matthew and I will fight to keep you out of the system. The second is a bit more complicated and involves working with clients that are looking to right their wrong. That often involves pushing for sentences that promote rehabilitation instead of recidivism. So, I’m very interested in pushing toward creative sentencing in the NC courts, increasing rehabilitation opportunities, and limiting the need for incarceration. If you’re in need of help and looking to move past your situation, we are interested in representing you.

Matthew Weaver represented on my behalf in court for a speeding violation in late October. This was in Charlotte, NC. I live in the Atlanta, Ga area and having to travel back to the Charlotte area was not feasible. They were very helpful in taking care of my court case and got my ticket successfully negotiated to improper equipment, which means I lose any license or insurance points.

Matt took my speeding ticket case and successfully plead down the charge so that I was able to avoid points on my license and an increase in my insurance. He was very prompt with contacting me and responding to me, and this was hands down the best rate I saw out of the many law offices I researched for this ticket. I really appreciate everything that Matt did for me!

Jake was able to be a huge help and took my case asap. Communication was very fast and I will without a doubt recommend Jake and his firm. If you want a reliable and personable representation this is your guy.

When I received a speeding ticket, within 2 days I received probably 2 dozen mail solicitations from law offices making various claims and offering their services for varying prices. How would I decide who to work with?! I sat on it for a couple of weeks and then I received a mailing from Larsen Weaver once all of the other mailings had stopped arriving. Their pricing was competitive so I inquired. I discovered their "all inclusive" price that covers any and all court costs, fines, fees, etc., regardless of how high they might be. Gave them a call, they responded quickly, it was easy to register with them and get the ball rolling. A month later and, presto!, speeding is reduced to improper equipment - no points, no record of speeding, no increased insurance premiums, etc. And all associated costs covered by my initial "inclusive" payment. Thanks to Jake and the staff at Larsen Weaver! (Hopefully I won't need you all again any time soon!)

The service was excellent. I just started back to work after summer vacation from the Cabarrus county schools and I could not take a day off yet and they represented me without my presence. Jake successfully got my ticket resolved with no points and no increase in my insurance. For these things I am thankful and grateful.

Thank you so much for handling my speeding ticket for me. The transaction was smooth and effortless on my part. Jake appeared in court for me so I didn't have to take off work or squeeze it into my busy life. My first court date was delayed and there was no extra charge. Jake got my ticket reduced and sent me instructions immediately on how to take care of the court costs, etc. Thank you thank you!
