kris is a very good attorney. She is great at her job and very passionate and caring. She goes over and beyond to help. I can not forget Coby as well and kris's legal aide. They all work together and do their best. They are always their and available to answer questions you might have and walk through with you about everything you will need for your case. I appreciate them and have nothing but good to say about the work they do at their firm.
Made everything easy and was tough as nails. Great job all the way around.
Loved working with Kris, Hannah, and the rest of the NXTSTEP team. While going through a high conflict divorce, you want to know you have someone on your side and they did just that. Experienced, knowledgeable, professional, and always prepared.
I almost didn't bother to fight. 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.
I will ALWAYS recommend Kris and Hannah as a legal team!! They are astounding in their field and are very thorough!!! I trusted them with the most important things in my life and they never let me down. Both are very relatable, dependable, detail oriented and absolutely driven to help you with any and everything you need. They knew how to calm me down and reassure me when I was worried, they went through everything with a fine toothed comb and took great care of me and my case. Forever grateful for these two amazing women and the amazing work they do!!! Mallorie Warren
Where 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!
Kris and her staff are amazing. These ladies will take care of you from day one. I got a bill summary at the beginning of each week that included a break down of the work that was being done on my case. I was never left in the dark. They make sure that you get your money's worth out of every phone call and email. Not many people can confidently say they have the best lawyer in Huntsville. But Kris and her staff are definitely the best.
Kris Sexton became a true advocate for my children. She made certain their voices were heard every time they nearly gave up their hope that any one would ever listen. Mrs. Sexton was unrelenting and laser-focused in her efforts to stay-abreast of the children’s emotional state & well-being, well-beyond Judicial Hearings & Court dates.
Kris and her team were excellent in response times to questions! She is so organized and that made me trust her even more. She is a bulldog and will fight to get you what you deserve!
Mrs. Sexton took my case and protected my children. I had no idea how to proceed but she walked me through every step and court date.
