Posted by Georgia | March 17, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Never again

I was represented by Shawntell Mckillop in a custody case against my physically and verbally abusive ex who is my son's father. She helped me a little during the hearing for the temp orders. After the temp orders hearing ended, she informed me that she had represented my son's aunt in her custody hea...ring which would be a conflict of interest. Between the temporary and final hearings, I attempted to contact her several times regarding my son's dad's family breaking the orders and she would never return my calls. During the final orders hearing, Shawntell didn't do anything she said she'd do and after the hearing was over, I found out that clauses were put into the final orders that I was not made aware of until after the orders were finalized. It seemed a lot like she was working for the other side after the temp orders hearing. I have since been afraid of hiring a lawyer because I fear going through another experience like I went through with Shawntell.

Be aware!

I paid for this attorney and she was late to court. Was not prepared and had nothing planned for a strong defense. She was still my attorney a year later and I was unaware. She is my current attorney and she has not responded to my calls since before Thanksgiving 2014, even with her secretaries assur...ance. Her secretaries act as if they are irritated if called to often and have nasty dispositions.

Shawntell was a pit bull!

She was amazing! I went into the process of getting visitation with my step son thinking I had no chance. Shawntell was a pit bull. She not only fought for us but she was very confident during the whole processes. Her confidence gave me the will to fight when all seemed lost. If you have a case s...he won’t BS you. You will get the facts up front before she will take the case. If you have an uphill battle, I would recommend hiring her.
