Beverly BarkerThis entire office is awesome. They are all friendly and professional. My attorney Nora is always very sweet and caring. She is always there for me in this horrendous and very very stressful situation. It is so important to feel that someone understands how hard all of this is and that you at least know that someone is working in your best interest. Nora is awesome!Kristin, her paralegal does a fantastic job keeping everything straight. I couldn't have asked for a better team. They are the best!! - 10/17/2018read moreread less Sarah TurnerI never thought I would end up in a situation where I would need an attorney, but Coby was recommended to me by a friend/coworker when I did. He eased my fears about the whole process from the beginning and was great to work with! He answered all of my questions and was always easily a phone call or text away if I had any questions. Kris and Coby are attorney's that will easily become a friend. They truly care and value their clients. Look no further, when it comes to NXTSTEP family law, you will be in good hands. I will always refer them! - 12/01/2023read moreread less Jonathan LampleyKudos to NXTSTEP, a law firm based in Huntsville, Alabama, that I can highly recommend.

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. She can be very tough and candid when necessary but did not need to prove her toughness by being unnecessarily contentious. She is very knowledgeable and has the experience to deal with multiple issues and she gets winning results. Not only does she have a lot of talent, but she is also very trustworthy. I was never afraid or apprehensive to talk to her about anything, and she was always honest about what to expect. I highly recommend her. - 8/25/2014read moreread less Nicole OdlandRobert Autrey and the staff who worked on my divorce case were AMAZING!

- KellyCrushed to Confident Following the realization that my marriage of almost 10 years was over, I was devastated. I had never imagined the possibility, and I certainly knew nothing of the process, what to expect, or where to turn. I found Kristina through a friend, and from the first appointment, I knew my children and I were in great hands. Kristina took time to explain basic case law, as well as the specific details of my own case. 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 could not imagine having walked through this process with any other attorney or team. - 2/06/2018read moreread less JenniferDivorce Kris was amazing to work with during a hard time in my life. She always answered any questions I had and never made me feel as if I was annoying her.

I would definitely recommend NXTSTEP LAW! - 7/11/2018read 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

I am incredibly thankful for all he did for me! - 12/07/2023read moreread less 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 LisaVery thorough and strong family law background Kristina Sexton has worked tirelessly on my behalf for almost two years.

I recommend contacting her to anyone in need of counsel. - 2/03/2021read 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

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.

We were shouted down, ignored, and even threatened. Had unfounded abuse allegations filed against us twice. DHR even tried to deny us legal counsel during the interviews, but Coby stood up for our constitutional rights.

I appreciated the fact that she was very upfront with me and walked me through every available option that was given. She was also very responsive to my calls/emails if I ever had any questions or concerns. But above all, Kris is an amazingly gifted attorney and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding Family Law attorney. - 3/17/2015read moreread less ScottCould not have asked for better support Mrs. Sexton took my case and protected my children.

Thank you for the Excellent out come for a family member. You guys rock! - 11/22/2019read moreread less Casey BrannonCoby is phenomenal. I hired him when starting my divorce process and was completely clueless on what to do. Coby met with me the day after I called and explained to me my options. I have two small children that are my world and he has kept there best interest at heart since day one. He has always been prompt to respond to calls and emails and always follows through on what he says. He dealt with everything and always gave me the quote "hindsight is 20/20" He still represents me and helps with the joys of dealing with child support issues. I highly recommend him and am so thankful for him. - 1/04/2017read moreread less
- Nyla McCoyProfessional yet personable. - 9/18/2019read moreread less 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 Amy Jean HargroveI strongly suggest NXTSTEP!!

- Conor GormanI had the best experience possible with Kris and her staff at NXTSTEP Family Law. I thought I was in a impossible place, but they showed me my rights and how important my case was to them. I wasn't alone with NXTSTEP. I recommend to anyone that is in a similar place to go talk to Kris or Cobi. You won't regret it. - 9/18/2017read moreread less CHRIS JARVISI recently had need for legal council, something no one desires, but Kris and Coby were understanding, listened and provided great council.

- 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 William WoodsMy husband and I had the honor of has Nora and Ashlee represent us in taking custody of my late sisters son.

From the bottom of our hearts we thank them. I highly recommend Nora and Ashlee to everyone. - 12/05/2023read moreread less LilianReview kris is a very good attorney.
