When you begin to consider hiring Shawntell, do your fair share of digging and realize that as she has gotten older she continues to do a poorer and poorer job at representing people. I retained Shawntell with the expectations being high. She talks a very big game, bashed the courts and all of their ...parts, the police department, and tries to reassure you she is the best for the job. Truly, she is only there for the money. From the beginning of my legal proceedings she was impossible to reach. I would attempt to reach her 2-3 times a week and would get in contact with her receptionist at best. Her para legal Emily was also extremely hard to get ahold of. Emails would go unanswered and phone calls often send to voicemail. When I would get ahold of Emily she would inform me that Shawntell was working tirelessly to resolve the issue and that I would hear from her soon. After releasing Shawntell as my attorney and hiring another attorney the truth came out. My new attorney had informed me that Shawntell had barely requested the discovery of information from the courts 4 months after my initial arrest. She had also informed me that going to prison was inevitable and there was nothing she could do about that but would attempt to get me less time. My new attorney got me probation. Long story short, don’t waste your time/money or risk your freedom.

Ms McKillop has been completely AMAZING!.... During my fiances criminal case we stayed in contact and spoke regularly regarding the progression of his situation, and although she was assign to us as a public defender she has proven to be THE BEST in San Angelo TX... CALL HER! she's absolutely Fabulou...s! Thank U Shawntell.
