Kimberly N. Shanklin

When you hear the phrase: "There's an ANGEL looking out for you"....that would be Kimberly. Kimberly is a top notch attorney with a superb skill at what she does. Yes, getting a DWI sucked....but with the help of Kimberly the fall wasn't as hard as I expected. When I was down she was there to pick me... right back up. She was by my side to the end. Thank you Kimberly

Kimberly and her paralegal Jessica were instrumental in resolving a nasty, 12 year old custody battle quickly and effectively. I had been badly burned by a previous lawyer who gauged me out of all of my savings and utterly humiliated himself and me during a hearing. Needless to say, I was hesitant to... trust attorneys again. Kimberly listened to the long and dramatic saga and gave me excellent and practical advice. She was honest and forthcoming about what I should expect, even if it wasn't what I was hoping for. This made me realize that she is not a lawyer who is in it for the money; she truly cares about her clients and works exceptionally hard to get the best possible outcome. As a woman who has had to deal with a bully of an opponent for over a decade, having a strong-willed, smart, experienced, and aggressive woman in my corner made all the difference.

Kimberly did a great job and was very professional, I thought everything was very thorough and handled well. I felt like I could go about my business and not have to worry about how things were going or if things were getting done. She did a great job with what I was expecting even though I had tim...es that I'm sure I was difficult to work with. A divorce is never fun but she will take care of you.

I will start my review with a brief history so that you understand the position I was in and the gratitude I am left with following my experience with this office and specifically with Kimberly Shanklin. I spent 13 years of my life in an abusive / co-dependent relationship that ended 10/2012. T...he months that followed this event were the worst of my life. One night in March of 2013 as I was trying to "find" myself. I left a group of friends after an evening of Dinner and beverages. I did not believe I was impaired until I found myself face to face with a police officer. I was in turn arrested and charged with a DWI. To some, a DWI charge is just that.....a charge. TO ME; I thought my life was over. From jail I called the person I had spent 13 years of my life with and not only did he not accept the "collect call" but he took the time to call the Jail to tell them "for me not to call". I felt alone, confused and did NOT know what to do. I was referred to the Tim Powers office through a friend of mine. I met with Tim powers first and immediately felt some sense of relief. His office is very professional and he himself is very diligent in his work. Through-out the process I was kept informed through phone/email contact constantly by Deborah. They welcomed my MULTITUDE of questions with answers and not frustration. I did not know what to expect as I had never dealt with anything remotely similar to this so I had concerns. As my case began I was assigned to Ms. Kimberly Shanklin. I will admit that I some reservations as I did not know anything about Ms. Shanklin. However those concerns were quickly dismissed. Ms. Shanklin SAVED MY LIFE and she didn't even know it. I will forever be grateful to Ms. Shanklin. Yes, I was charged and eventually convicted of the DWI charge however......Ms. Shanklin was somehow able to work with the DA and as a result secured a "Plea" that I could not turn down. I cannot begin to share with you the level of professionalism and compassion from this office. There is SOOOOOO MUCH more to my story and I will share it with whom ever asks......but the short of my review ; IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN NEED OF AN ATTORNEY - KIMBERLY NICOLE SHANKLIN is the only choice in Denton County!
