About John Reynolds
John Reynolds Weikart built his legal foundation at The University of Texas School of Law. He arrived at law school after earlier undergraduate studies and left with a Juris Doctor degree that set the direction for his practice. The classroom there shaped his approach to legal analysis and client work.
After law school Weikart pursued admission to practice in multiple jurisdictions. He is admitted in both Connecticut and New York. Those dual admissions have allowed him to represent clients on matters that cross state lines and to handle filings and proceedings in courts across both states.
Weikart’s career includes time in private practice and serving clients across a range of civil matters. He joined Sexton & Company, LLC, where he is part of the small-firm environment and works alongside colleagues on matters that require careful legal research and courtroom preparation. His work at the firm involves drafting pleadings, managing discovery, and appearing in court when litigation requires an advocate at the podium.
Colleagues describe Weikart as methodical in preparing cases and attentive in client meetings. He takes a pragmatic approach to problem solving. He assesses legal risks and practical outcomes. That style has informed how he negotiates settlements and how he plans trial strategies when cases proceed to contested hearings.
Weikart has handled matters that require coordination between offices in Connecticut and New York. That practical experience with cross-jurisdictional issues has made him familiar with differing procedural rules and local customs. He aims to keep clients informed about developments and timelines, explaining next steps in straightforward terms rather than legal jargon.
Outside the courtroom, Weikart continues to maintain ties with professional networks and bar associations that serve practitioners in both states. He attends continuing legal education programs to stay current on changes in state and federal procedure and on recent case law that may affect his clients.
As of 2026, he practices at Sexton & Company, LLC, addressing litigation and transactional needs for clients in Connecticut and New York. He focuses his practice on matters brought in state and federal courts in those jurisdictions.
