What Our Clients Say
-
Mike LeebernI retained Kris Sexton in the summer of 2016 when I was denied my summer visitation by my ex-wife. I had smaller problems with visitation since my divorce was finalized in late 2014 but this was the last straw for me. I was not at all happy with my original divorce attorney so I knew it was time to find a good attorney that could help me out. As soon as I hired Kris I could immediately tell the difference and knew that I had a very knowledgeable and beyond competent attorney that could finally represent me accordingly. She immediately got me back my lost summer visitation and then we proceeded to work on getting custody completely changed. I had always been alienated from my kids ever since leaving my ex-wife, denied phone calls when they weren’t with me or on the rare occasion I was able to briefly talk to my kids on the phone they were often made to call me names by my ex-wife or simply say whatever she wanted them to tell me, rather than just simply getting to tell me about their day. I was not told about doctor appointments for my kids, or even surgeries, was erased from most of their doctor and some school forms and was constantly battling my ex-wife attempting to keep me from being a part of my kids lives. I even had to fight to keep my ex-wife from moving away wth the kids, which Kris was also a huge help with. After a long hard battle, I’ve learned through all of this that nothing involving the courts moves very quickly, Kris was able to get me sole physical custody of my kids with all decision-making. As a father in Alabama I know how tough it is to get sole custody but Kris was able to do it. I went into this just hoping to maybe get true split custody with joint decision making but Kris far exceeded my expectations. I would highly and absolutely recommend Kris Sexton, and her paralegal Hannah who was awesome through this whole process as well, to anyone whether they’re a father or a mother who are looking for unmatched representation when it comes to custody and or divorce related issues. If you are looking for someone who knows all of your rights as a parent, will fight for those rights and will represent you in the most professional way imaginable then you cannot do any better than Kris Sexton at NXTSTEP Family Law. - 9/18/2018read moreread less Rebecca AtchleyHands down the best family law lawyers in Alabama, Coby is very friendly, easygoing and very understanding, he explains everything in great detail and answers all your questions,he replies to every email and returns calls asap, he made our case easy and hassle free, he walked us through everything before he ever started our case,he does a lot from the community Niki the paralegal assigned to our case was amazing ,she was kind, friendly and very friendly, she replied right away to every email even when she was away from the office and trust me I emailed her a lot, if she didn't have a answer I needed she found it for me as soon as she could The girls at the first desk were welcoming everytime we came to the office The office law dawgs were the highlight of every visit for my child - 9/18/2018read moreread less Brittany CopelandWe could not have had a better experience!

- Lisa BrizendineWords really can't express the gratitude I have for Kristina Sexton. She has been with me every step of the way during my very difficult divorce. Kris, as well as her paralegal Hannah, have been on top of every situation. They've kept me informed during the entire process. Kris has been "spot on" in providing her legal advice, and trust me, this wasn't a "file for divorce and be done in 2 months" situation! My situation has had many twists, turns, and complexities; yet, she never blinked an eye. She is very strategic and highly experienced, well beyond her years. I believe she's a very versatile attorney, whether you are needing an aggressive attorney or one that is suited for a more "amicable" situation. I am more than pleased; I am very thankful to have chosen Kris, Hannah, and the rest of the team at NXSTEP Family Law to help me. - 1/04/2018read moreread less adam rothblattCoby and Niki helped to represent me in my divorce and custody case.

I could not have been more thankful. When looking for an attorney you wonder, "can I trust this person when it counts the most, are they just about the money?".

After enduring two years of struggle and nearly losing everything dear to me, I found myself in a situation where, without her and her firm, I would have faced total loss.

- Holly WrightWhere do I start?! Kris is a GAMECHANGER for Family Law. She is organized, responsive, caring, and more importantly...she gets results! She listens and does her homework and cheers you along the way. Her paralegal Hannah is amazing as well...they tag team and get the job done! These ladies would even respond in the evening at times...well after hours if it was really important. She knows the key players in the court system which helps as well. I am so grateful to have met her. She is someone that you can tell your issue to once and she knows what you are thinking and how to fix it before you do. Nobody ever wants to go to court and I was a nervous wreck even though I was the one that filed. Kris was so compassionate, told me to relax...that she's got it and she was right. She will have your back! To achieve that level of trust that quickly when dealing with your family is priceless to me. I will forever be so grateful to have met her. Kris Sexton is definitely who you need to hire for custody issues, etc. Hopefully I will not need her again...but she offered to be on stand by if I needed anything else. What a great lawyer! - 6/20/2021read moreread less ShuntaChild custody I wish I had Kris for the 1st hearing and I like how she can handle a case well with providing proof to the courts.

She gave me best and worst case scenarios up front. She went up against 3 different lawyers with my ex and we always came out on top. She also went up against a very aggressive judge and we had several judgements in our favor throughout the 9 months. I got full custody of my kids and got to keep my house.

- TiaraCustody Kris Sexton is hands down one of the best attorneys around. She is professional and transparent while keeping the case moving as much as she can. She prepared me for any obstacle and gave me the biggest support ever. I'm forever grateful for her time and experience. I'd hire her again if I had to. - 5/31/2017read moreread less anonymousCould not have asked for a better custody attorney I retained Kris Sexton in the summer of 2016 when I was denied my summer visitation by my ex-wife. I had smaller problems with visitation since my divorce was finalized in late 2014 but this was the last straw for me. I was not at all happy with my original divorce attorney so I knew it was time to find a good attorney that could help me out. As soon as I hired Kris I could immediately tell the difference and knew that I had a very knowledgeable and beyond competent attorney that could finally represent me accordingly. She immediately got me back my lost summer visitation and then we proceeded to work on getting custody completely changed. I had always been alienated from my kids ever since leaving my ex-wife, denied phone calls when they weren’t with me or on the rare occasion I was able to briefly talk to my kids on the phone they were often made to call me names by my ex-wife or simply say whatever she wanted them to tell me, rather than just simply getting to tell me about their day. I was not told about doctor appointments for my kids, or even surgeries, was erased from most of their doctor and some school forms and was constantly battling my ex-wife attempting to keep me from being a part of my kids lives. I even had to fight to keep my ex-wife from moving away wth the kids, which Kris was also a huge help with. After a long hard battle, I’ve learned through all of this that nothing involving the courts moves very quickly, Kris was able to get me sole physical custody of my kids with all decision-making. As a father in Alabama I know how tough it is to get sole custody but Kris was able to do it. I went into this just hoping to maybe get true split custody with joint decision making but Kris far exceeded my expectations. I would highly and absolutely recommend Kris Sexton, and her paralegal Hannah who was awesome through this whole process as well, to anyone whether they’re a father or a mother who are looking for unmatched representation when it comes to custody and or divorce related issues. If you are looking for someone who knows all of your rights as a parent, will fight for those rights and will represent you in the most professional way imaginable then you cannot do any better than Kris Sexton at NxtStep Family Law. - 6/11/2018read moreread less anonymousAwesome Family Lawyer!

She didn't make decisions for me, but instead provided me with information and guided me to make the decision that was best for my children and myself. I had a million questions, big and small, and Kristina and Hannah were always there with an answer. Kristina and NxtStep Family Law took a real interest in getting the best results. Not only do they know family law, they also know the local jurisdictions and other firms well, so it was a relief not to wonder what might happen next; instead, I was educated and well-prepared every step of the way.

I've lived in Madison, Alabama my whole life and anyone who is from here is aware of Alabama's rightfully perceived biased on a fathers custody arrangement with their kids. Traditionally, a "weekend warrior" was the best possible outcome for the lucky fathers here.Allow this bright little review to shine through as encouragement. Fast forward to 2020:I decided to fight... The influence I knew I deserved in my son's life was well worth it. After much research & conversation with others that had their finger on the pulse of this town, I gave Kris Sexton a call.Kris and the NXTStep family whole-heartedly committed themselves to my son and I. Fully equiped for the strongest representation around, by far! We went in against what seemed like adverse odds in the beginning. Kris at the helm, we fought... and fought some more.After what seemed to be forever, NXTStep Family's dominant litigation structure made it crystal clear to the Madison judge that it was my pure intent and desire to have a healthy relationship with my son.And we won!Your choice is clear. If you need the best representation in Madison County, give Kris Sexton a call. - 10/04/2021read moreread less Steve WhitmanNxtstep and Mr Boswell helped me in a time of need. They were professional and compassionate every step of the way. I would highly recommend Mr Boswell in your family law issues. He is on the side of the child and doing what is right for that child. - 1/26/2020read moreread less anonymousDivorce and Child Custody Coby did an amazing job for my case. He got the exact details of my situation and worked through to get the best resolution. I never thought I would have been in a custody and divorce situation, but sure was glad Coby and team was working on my side. - 11/29/2023read moreread less
- chassidy musicTruly a blessing!!! In August 2016, Kristina Sexton began working with my son and I. She gave so much dedication and attention to our situation. I honestly could not believe how invested she was to our case. My custody issues were very intense and complex due to it being an out of state placement. There were so many times I became completely hopeless but Kris brought the light back to my life when we went to court and she stood up and let herself be heard when noone else was able to do so. Because of her passion and determination I am home today with my son by my side. I could never say enough positive things about Kristina Sexton as a person and an attorney. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for legal advice/representation. If you want a strong willed, well knowledged attorney with a can and will do attitude, Kris is by far the way to go! - 2/20/2017read moreread less John MKris has been my attorney for over 3 years, and she is hands down one of the best in the whole state. I had a very complex case, and I can't imagine how it would have turned out if I didn't have her help. Divorce can affect you for many years, and you need somebody that can advocate and help you through the entire process. I highly recommend her. - 1/04/2018read moreread less JasonDedicated and Honest Kris and Hannah are amazing!! From our first meeting throughout the 15 month process, they were welcoming, understanding, dedicated, knowledgeable, and committed to representing me to the best of their abilities. I could not have asked for a better team to present my case. I can’t speak about them highly enough. They were both indescribably helpful and patient with me throughout an extremely difficult and drawn out process. If you find yourself in need of family legal help, make the best decision possible and call Kris at NXTSTEP Family Law. - 7/11/2018read moreread less
- Adrian Sanders"NAVIGATING A DIVORCE IS DIFFICULT. DURING THE MEDIATION, KRIS'S PROFESSIONALISM & EASY-GOING DEMEANOR HELPED MY ATTORNEY & I MOVE FORWARD EXECUTING THE FINAL STAGES OF MY DIVORCE." - 9/24/2024read moreread less MarianneAmazing experience Kris is honest and down to earth. I love how she told me what to expect right away, she fought for us and was just the most amazing attorney you could ask for. She is nice and inviting but in the courtroom shes firm. Doesnt take a no for an answer when what we were asking for wasnt far fetched. I wanted a bulldog in an attorney and i found it. Hannah is amazing too. You wouldnt be disappointed with her or her staff!! - 11/17/2016read moreread less will walkerMr. Boswell and the staff at NXTSTEP are excellent they are very thorough and diligent in handling your case and they give you max output in getting your matters resolved in a positive outcome.I had a long process and Coby & Niki were great and were right there with me every step of the way.

- anonymousGreat lawyer during a tough time I hired Kris Sexton to be my divorce lawyer about a year ago. It was a devastating time of my life and Kris did what she could to make it manageable. She took her time with me, answered my questions, was very thorough with her responses, and I felt very protected by her when it came to my ex-husband's lawyer. I really felt like she was watching out for me and handling things so I wouldn't have to. She even met with me after the divorce was final to answer additional questions I had. It was a pleasure working with her. - 1/06/2014read moreread less James LeeGreat representation. Easy to work with. Prompt responses to queries. Invaluable assistance steering me around and over the legal hurdles. - 12/27/2019read moreread less Sunshine ShumateWhen dealing with tough personal family situations, it helps to know that you have a legal team on your side willing to fight for you and ensure you are taken care of during such a hard time. Kristina Sexton and her entire staff worked hard to make me feel supported and comfortable, and I never had to worry that my legal needs would not be met. I highly recommend Kris and NXTSTEP Family Law! - 1/04/2019read moreread less
