Tommy SiniardGreat professionals that understand the WHOLE process ... There is much more to it than law !! Comprehensive approach = better resolutions ! We recommend !! - 7/07/2016read moreread less TaraWonderful and Helpful Coby Boswell is a wonderful attorney. Very caring and helpful throughout the process. Handles everything with the utmost care, compassion and professionalism. The staff he and Kristina Sexton have built are all very helpful and dedicated to getting you the help needed. I will continue to use Mr Boswell if future issues arise and recommend him highly to my friends, or anyone I know looking for a family attorney. - 3/21/2017read moreread less 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!! - 1/03/2019read 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 Marianne ManleyKris is amazing, she sets realistic attainable expectations.

It was very emotional and complicated. Kris and her paralegal Hannah took the time to get to know me on a personal level and the case in its entirety. They always responded right away to all of my many questions and worked so very hard for me. Hiring Kris was the very best decision and I will always be grateful to her and Hannah for all of the hard work and passion they put into my case. It truly showed in court. I thank them from the very bottom of my heart ❤️. - 2/01/2020read moreread less WilliamGreat Lawyer I would recommend Coby Boswell to anyone who asked for a legal reference. 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. Hiring Mr. Boswell feels like you have an old friend who will be honest with you, who also just happens to be a really good lawyer. - 3/01/2014read 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 JessicaSword and Shield When I started the process of my divorce, I had no idea how ugly my former partner could be. When they started to go out of their way to hurt me, it was almost more than I could bear. I remember all of my worries melting away after speaking with Coby Boswell. He said he was now my sword and shield. I knew I could trust him and that he would do whatever it took to keep me safe. Mr. Boswell was consistent and professional and I appreciate everything he did for me. - 12/07/2023read moreread less WendyDarn good at what she does! Nora was an excellent divorce attorney for me.

I consulted with Kris years ago when she was at another firm and when I learned she’d opened her own, followed her. You couldn’t find a better team to work with.

And the last was so expertly worded by Coby and Cheryl, it’s saved me a visit to court for another mod (at least it won’t be initiated by me). This team knows our judges. Knows the right experts.

- Anthony GraciaIf it was not for the professional staff and Attorney's, my case would have been alot more stressful than I expected. - 1/04/2019read moreread less Kenyonika SorterI obtained Coby Boswell for my divorce in 2021. He did not do my paperwork correctly from the start and still wanted to be paid. I would not pay him until the paperwork was correctly submitted to the courts. Coby then got upset decided to sue me in small claims for $1000 that my email stated I would pay for the work that was never completed he never won my divorce never did what he said he would do. He then asked me come back in his office a second time and I did and he had his lady Kris Sexton come in to talk to me she tried to get me to sign the paperwork as well and I wouldn’t she left out and began to cry and said I hurt her feelings and made her feel sad Coby then walked in and tried to berate me that was my first “Karen” experience. The day of the small claim court the attorney of my ex husband Aaron Ryan showed up to the small claim court hearing sat beside Coby and they chatted looked and smiled I know it was a scare tactic. It didn’t work! He actually tried to sued me for more than our agreement however , his evidence that he presented to the judge was insufficient the amounts that he stated I owed him was incorrect but me on the other hand I had every document he had ever sent. I presented it to the judge she saw the discrepancies he could not justify them he got so upset in the courtroom that the judge deemed him bombastic and kicked him out her court room. He also argued with the mediator lady so much she walked off. After that, I obtained another lawyer and explained how Coby acted in court he then said and I quote “If you get him off his balance he is unbalanced” he also stated at one point other judges had to sit Coby down and told him to settle down because he gets ugly real quick. I would not recommend this lawyer to get custody of a dog. - 7/23/2025read moreread less MichaelCan't be better Kristian was is an expert in Family law.

- 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 Mallari WarrenI will ALWAYS recommend Kris and Hannah as a legal team!!

- Daveno nonsense, took my case seriously Nora (through the NXTSTEP practice in Huntsville, AL) did a fantastic job with my divorce-related case in the fall of 2019. She took a no-nonsense, serious approach to my defense. She did excellent research and preparation work. Her communication was very responsive and timely. I've encountered many lawyers in this field around Huntsville, and there are *many* duds, so I recommend you do careful research up front. I strongly encourage you to consider hiring Nora, as I will certainly do myself in the future if I ever need her services again. - 1/18/2020read moreread less KaseyExcellent Attorney, gives sound advice and gets results!

- JohnExcellent attorney I hired Kris as my divorce attorney in March of 2014. She was very thorough in her approach and very knowledgeable concerning the law as it pertained to my case. It was a very contentious divorce and I have three small children, so I needed someone with her skills to put my mind at ease that my children's best interest were being served. She and her staff were always very professional and helped me every step of the way. In a difficult situation like divorce, it's always reassuring to know that you have a professional working diligently on your behalf. She has continued to give guidance after my divorce when child custody and post-separation issues have arisen with my former spouse. I would definitely recommend her services for anyone facing divorce and/or child custody issues. - 6/01/2017read moreread less Michael EcholsMr. Autrey and his paralegal Chelsea have been amazing throughout this two year process!

If I needed anything or had a question he would answer quickly. He explained processes, procedures, and documents in a way that helped me understand the details. During the trial he kept me calm and focused, and asked the most pertinent questions to get to the underlying issues of why my spouse should not have custody of our daughter. Due to this, the judge awarded me sole custody, which I truly feel was in the best interest of my child. I would definitely recommend Coby to anyone going through a divorce, especially when the welfare of a child is at risk. - 6/17/2015read moreread less

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 was well prepared and knowledgeable. We definitely recommend her and her staff. - 1/04/2019read moreread less AnnaAwesome lawyer I felt confident going into a child support issue because Kris was my lawyer. She responds quickly to questions and has great support staff. She is very straight-forward and will only tell you facts (and not just what you want to hear). She has a great reputation among lawyers and judges and this makes it easier for mediations to go well. - 11/26/2023read 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 Wendy NollKris Sexton is a wonderful attorney.

- 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 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 does a great job. I'm a happy client! - 4/22/2018read 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

She has been wonderful. - 6/21/2015read moreread less KellyHonest, Responsive, and caring! I cannot say enough good things about Kris and NXTstep! I chose Kris because she came HIGHLY recommended by friends and other attorneys in town. I went through a very difficult and complicated contested divorce with a child custody case, which thankfully ended in mediation. I was absolutely shocked that we didn’t have to go to court, but Kris guided me through the mediation process and we were successful. I got more than I asked for, and couldn’t be happier. Kris and Hannah (paralegal) truly care about their clients. They are attentive and knowledgeable about the law, and wouldn’t talk over my head, which I appreciated immensely. I am a highly educated person, but legal jargon is not my strong suit. Thank you for making me feel important, and never letting me feel alone in the process. I highly recommend Kris and Hannah! - 2/05/2020read moreread less
