Shelby Ashcraft

Paralegal

Shelby Ashcraft 1Hey! I’m Shelby. Raised in Mena, Arkansas, but a recent transplant to Little Rock to attend William H. Bowen School of Law. In my most recent past life, my title was Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor with the Arkansas Department of Corrections in Polk and Montgomery County, specifically with the Montgomery County Drug Court Program.

My connection with our clients at Lion Legal comes from our similarities in being no stranger to hard work! I spent several years in the service industry to put myself through school (as a young mom, no less!). In my first semester of college a local judge, who was also my Criminal justice professor, sparked my love for the law. In 2020, I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice at the U of A in Ft. Smith.

When I tell you how it feeds my soul to help others, it’s not just words to make my biography sound good! My social work background as a drug counselor for several years combined with my non-profit M.A.D.E, which I founded and ran in Polk County to connect community resources to those in need, supports that I really mean it. All our Lion Legal clients can rely on my innate desire to make stressful life circumstances as easy as possible for them, particularly as a member of their legal team.

Outside of work and school, I am a mom and bonus mom to three boys and a pet mom to my crew of cats and dogs. I enjoy reading and collecting more books to add to my “to be read” pile. I spend many summer days at the creek or river – anything outdoors, to balance all the hours I spend behind a keyboard!

The Law of the Jungle is changing.

Lion Legal is making it happen.
That's why we're the Legal Pride of Arkansas.
