- Taylor PaulkRequiring a $300 consultation fee that isn’t listed on the website when you set up an appointment but cancelling your appointment when you don’t know is not a fair way to treat a family that’s obviously dealing with stuff. REPLY TO THEIR REPLY: My email confirmation stated no requirement of a deposit, or I would have easily paid. The appointment setting process also didn’t mention a fee. Even when I called and discussed it over the phone with somebody at your firm, I was told it is not on the website and that you find that out during the conversation with the firm. I was able to acquire other assistance where they were upfront about the fees and already feel more comfortable. I do hope you help many families and maybe make the fee known in the online appointment making process or the confirmation email. Have a good day. - 4/14/2024read moreread less Yalena Noelia MedinaAs someone that has never needed to seek out legal representation, I am blown away by just how amazing working with NXTSTEP was.

Thank you guys! - 8/19/2024read moreread less CarmenAmazing lawyer! I would recommend Mr. Boswell to any and every person who may be having legal trouble with family. He made me feel comfortable and secure while going to court. He responded to every email in a timely fashion, while listening to all if my request. He took everything I said and did his best to achieve the ultimate goal. Thanks Mr. Boswell - 6/01/2015read moreread less 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. - 1/04/2019read moreread less
- Dalton BrownKris Sexton is an exceptional family lawyer. 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. The decisions I had made previously complicated matters for her, yet she never judged me or allowed me to feel defeated or without options. She consistently excels in the courtroom, and even if a motion does not yield the desired outcome, her determination only intensifies, ensuring she achieves the best possible results for her clients. My family and I are profoundly grateful to Kristina Sexton and NXTSTEP FAMILY LAW. - Abby Brown - 8/22/2024read moreread less Gary McGeeOur family had a great experience with Ms. Sexton in our adoption case.

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

- LoriTop Lawyer and Firm in Alabama, Incredible Wins Kris Sexton and her team took on my case with a clear direction after my consultation and had victories in every request and battle we fought. I hired NXT Step to take over my custody case which was extremely complex and in my situation life threatening to myself and my child. Her and her team were concise, moved quick, answered all my questions and helped me understand the law, guided me through each process, and most importantly to me aggressively fought for me and my son. My expectations were so far exceeded so many times. Not only because she fought so hard and won each time, but because I knew she was dedicated to my case and treated it as it was as important to her as it was to me and my family. Her team was extraordinary as well! She saved my family time and time again. She knows the system, she has an outstanding reputation with the Judges’, she knows the law. I could not have had a better experience considering the situation I was in. She is known as one of the best lawyers in the South and now I know why. - 1/13/2023read 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.

- 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. - 1/03/2019read 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 Stefanie WhaleyAwesome Attorney Kristina helped bring our family together and do what we felt was imposssible!

I may have hired him to represent me, but we worked as a team for the best possible outcome.

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!

I had a particularly rough and lengthy divorce and custody case he represented me in. He kept in constant contact, which from what I have seen in reviews seems to be the typical complaint people have. I Have never had Mr. Boswell take more than a few hours to at least touch base with me and let me know he got my message and was working the issue. He was always understanding of the situation and would walk me through all scenarios and options available to me. To put things politely, my ex was willing to fabricate things to use in court to try and take the focus off of the things she had done. Mr. Boswell was always able to shed light on these in court and ethically provide proof of her actions, effectively getting me custody of my daughter. He is a very intelligent and capable attorney, and has through his career developed several techniques that he utilizes to his success in the courtroom. It was nothing short of a pleasure to sit beside him and watch his strategy unfold just like he had prepped me for all along. I think one of his most respectable traits is his honesty. He will not tell you what you want to hear just to keep your business or get your hopes up, he will tell you how the situation really is and then give you options to move forward. I will not use another lawyer after the relationship I have built with Mr. Boswell through his courtesy and professionalism.

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. - 1/04/2019read moreread less
