What Our Clients Say
-
Jennifer ParkerNiki went above and beyond to work with me during a really difficult time and I can't recommend her highly enough! - 4/03/2019read moreread less Theresa MonfetKris Sexton is a highly intelligent and powerful attorney who puts the time, dedication and years of knowledge in to ensuring her clients get the best representation possible. Kris is a shark in the court room and put my needs as her client at the forefront of how she handled my case. I couldn't be more satisfied with the work that she has done and will suggest her to everyone I know. - 9/18/2017read moreread less DonovanAbsolutely Amazing I hired Kristina for a nasty custody battle between my child’s mother and myself, and as hard as it was to get through she made me feel confident the whole time. Kris truly cared for my wishes and was willing to fight for me like I was family. I never had any trouble getting a hold of Kris, she always emailed me back quickly. I wouldn’t ever want anyone else representing me. If you want a lawyer that you can be confident in that they are working hard for you, then you can’t go wrong with Kris and her team at NXTstep. She has truly done me wonders. - 1/19/2019read moreread less - anonymousHonest, ethical, & Genuine I consulted with Kris for my case. During the initial consult she explained thoroughly what to expect and how the process would work and I’m pleased to say that everything went like clockwork! She never gave me false hopes, or told me simply what I wanted to hear. She was honest and upfront and told me the risk vs the benefit at every step. She answered every email and I had zero trouble getting ahold of her, which I’ve heard is very rare with most attorneys. There were no surprises, nothing we didn’t plan for, and I’m very happy with the result. Kris also treated me like a real person, and not just another client. I’d recommend her to everyone! - 4/08/2018read moreread less Amanda HallI am so thankful that my friend recommended Nxtstep when I found out that I would be going through a divorce. Nora Hickman is so knowledgeable & is great at what she does. She not only gave me encouragement through such a hard time in my life but also fought for me when at times, I didn’t even feel like fighting for myself. You cannot go wrong with this law firm and their sweet, helpful & understanding staff. - 10/17/2018read moreread less anonymousAwesome Family Lawyer! Kris is an amazing attorney.

- anonymousHighly recommended Coby has been an excellent lawyer to my situation over the last 4 years! I've gone through a custody battle as well as terminations of parental rights. He has been my right hand man! I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. From my back to back phone calls crying and freaking out for no reason or my calls of just great advice from someone I trust. We've gone a few months of silence, because everything was great, he would always call just to touch base and make sure my life was ok. Coby has always calmed me down and reassured me every step of the way! I would recommend him to any family out there going through stressful times. - 3/29/2017read moreread less anonymousDeftly navigated a difficult situation to a satisfying conclusion Kris is an expert in all areas of the art. She understands technology, its impacts on our daily lives and how to use it. She understands the process and how to use it to navigate the most difficult situations. She was patient where I was impatient, helpful, attentive and only billed when absolutely necessary. She has been a dream to work with and I'm so glad I did. She resolved my case to the satisfaction of everyone involved and I'm very happy to be moving forward to the next chapter of my life. If I have to call her to deal with anything on this matter again, I most certainly will do that. I can't recommend Kris and her team enough. - 6/11/2018read moreread less MaryAttention to detail Kris represented me and did a phenomenal job.

- Kyla LumpkinI've been represented by Coby for multiple disputes and have always been well represented. He exudes passion for your case and displays professionalism in the court room. - 10/17/2018read moreread less JuliaCompassionate Justice I truly feel like my granddaughter's life was saved by Kris and her team!! Kris met with my husband and I just hours after the Emergency Hearing that granted us temporary custody and allowed us to take our granddaughter to our home- across several state lines and 12 hours away. Kris was always three steps ahead of our granddaughter's parents (once DNA test came back and there was a father involved) and their legal teams, making sure motions were filed to get information that we needed for our case. The father would not speak with anyone and the mother (my husband's daughter from a previous relationship) was completely uncooperative, unreasonable, disrespectful and hateful the entire duration of our case. The judge ordered things like Social Security number and Birth Certificate be turned over (to enable us to get our granddaughter on our health insurance) and not one time did the mother comply so Kris would file motions to "Compel". We were able to participate via telephone for most of the hearings. I feel like Kris went above and beyond, especially just days before our Final Hearing, because the parents did not comply with Discovery until the day before the hearing/trial, I know Kris had to have been up late compiling information (had gained access to mother's Facebook) for exhibits during the hearing. A fair amount of that information was extremely disturbing and unbeknownst to me and couldn't have been easy to read. I am fairly sure that most everything about our case was unique, my stepdaughter has been diagnosed with numerous, very serious mental disabilities (on SSI for them) and just dealing with her was a constant challenge for all. When communication became difficult between myself and she, Kris had me forward (mostly via email) the message chain and she took over to save me the emotional stress. Just arranging a visitation was a complete drama and challenge, but Kris made sure it got done. Kris even personally called me on the phone, in the evenings, knowing I needed more than just an email. Kris got the CAJA people involved and also asked for DHR to become involved again, to also aid in services for my stepdaughter. Kris kept in constant contact with me every time something new was developing (Emergency Hearing was November 3, 2017 and Final Hearing was August 17, 2018). She attended the previous two hearings even though we participated via telephone. In the initial consultation Kris listened intently and explained, in detail, how things would likely proceed and progress and that this was going to take up to a year for us to get the result we were looking for. Due to the nature of my stepdaughter's lifestyle/religious (using that loosely) beliefs, even before the horrendous full truth was finally revealed, my husband and I wanted to be sure that our granddaughter would NEVER be subjected to any period of time with her parents that would allow for her to be in/around them without us present. Early on visitations were ordered to be supervised only, keeping our granddaughter safe. Kris made sure we were in touch with the CAJA and his supervisor (he even came all the way to our home for a home visit and face to face interview, after doing a FaceTime interview and walk through of our home), the GAL and had them aid us in getting visitation scheduled as well as offering appropriate places and contact information for official supervisors for these visitations. Some of our legal fees were solely due to my stepdaughter being completely non-compliant and uncooperative (with literally EVERYTHING ordered, scheduling, etc.) so Kris filed motions for Sanctions to try and help recoup some monies for us, which we never expected but greatly appreciated. This ended up costing quite a bit more than we had expected, but we never felt taken advantage of. I know we couldn't have found a better representative for our case!!! - 8/20/2018read moreread less Amanda HallI am so thankful that my friend recommended Nxtstep when I found out that I would be going through a divorce.

- NicholeI made the RIGHT CHOICE To be honest I was skeptical at first because I did not understand the process. Kris kept telling me not to worry and that was hard for me but when this woman came to court....WOW was she super prepared and owned the courtroom. The other attorney didn't stand a chance - partly because her client had not been truthful and partly because Kris knew every law and angle to use in support of our argument. It was apparent when we left the courtroom that the Judge could see the truth and that was a victory in itself but then the custody settlement as well as a judgement for attorney fees came in and all I can say is thank you Kris for fighting for me and giving me the strength to fight for my son! I will recommend to anyone that is in need of a very SHARP attorney that honestly has the best interest of your child. Well worth every single penny and more!! Thanks again Kris! You are my Ambassador of Quan and a blessing to me and most importantly to the future of my son!! - 3/25/2016read moreread less Michael BussCan't better. The firm resolved my issues in weeks.

Kris and her team put forth their best efforts for me and my daughter making her the first priority, but also being there for support though the hardest of times and walked me through every trying situation. Kris and Brandy always have an answer for any of my questions or concerns and being able to always ease my worries. They are always on top of what ever was throw our way, very proactive and were always one step ahead.

- anonymousBest child custody and divorce lawyer in town I was recommended Kris through a friend. When I met with her she was straight to the point. She had a plan of action and told me exactly what I needed to do. I hired her as my divorce lawyer that day. We battled it out with my ex for about 9 months. Her and her office were always very responsive to my emails and calls. She advised me on what to do and what not to do. 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. She is a laid back but also a straight to the point kinda lawyer, which I love!

- Cora MeeksMy husband and I chose this law firm out of the recommendation of a friend when we had dealing with DHR and we were not disappointed! My husband had Coby for the family attorney and Jamie as his criminal attorney in 2020 and they and their assistants were both responsive, reliable, patient with our many questions, professional and they cared. We are so thankful for the time, energy and work that they put into our case in order to make our family whole again. Even though, our case lasted 10 months, they were there every step up the way and we are forever grateful for that. They always listened to us and made us feel like we were being heard and we knew we could count on them. I know this post is basically 2 years late but that's only because I wanted to focus on our family and nurture the relationships that DHR had tried to snuff out by falsely accusing my husband and our family of things so i say all this to just say if you're wondering if you should use NXTSTEP then you definitely should because you won't be disappointed! - 1/08/2022read moreread less TaraWonderful and Helpful Coby Boswell is a wonderful attorney.

- JohnGreat Attorney Whatever problem you are facing across the family law spectrum, I cannot think of a better person to call than Kristina Sexton. Divorce and child custody are very serious issues that will affect you for the rest of your life, and having the wrong lawyer will have severe consequences. The battle I was facing with my wife (now ex-wife) was very difficult and sometimes nasty, but Ms. Sexton handled everything perfectly in a personable and efficient manner. She was thorough and always well-prepared, very supportive, and always returned my calls and emails. She is very professional in the court room and always showed respect to the Judge and other lawyers.
