About Rachel
Rachel Sexton built a route to the law that began far from a courtroom. She earned a Bachelor of Science in equine studies from Dickinson State University in 2011 and later turned to legal studies at Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, receiving her J.D. in 2017. Those years framed a practical approach to problem solving and client work.
After law school she entered practice in Michigan, where she is licensed to practice. Over the years she has developed experience in matters that commonly come before bankruptcy and consumer courts. She joined Better Days Law Group and has worked from the firm’s offices since joining the team. The firm listings show multiple office points, and her day-to-day work ties her to those locations.
Sexton’s professional affiliations include membership in the American Bankruptcy Institute, which she joined in 2019. She retains that membership and participates in programming and research offered by the organization. Her association with professional groups informs how she approaches evolving rules and the practical questions that arise in consumer insolvency work.
Her courtroom and client work centers on the intersection of consumer debt and the bankruptcy system. She handles case preparation, filing, and representation at hearings. Her practice involves counseling individuals about options, completing necessary paperwork, and managing procedural deadlines. She also spends time explaining the implications of bankruptcy filings so clients understand immediate effects and longer-term considerations.
Peers and colleagues describe Sexton as methodical in case preparation. She places emphasis on document accuracy, calendar management, and clear client communication. Those traits guide how she prepares cases for hearings and negotiates procedural matters. She has navigated matters typical to consumer bankruptcy practice, including claims administration and creditor negotiation.
Outside the office she follows developments in bankruptcy law through continuing education and through the American Bankruptcy Institute’s materials. She applies updates in practice rules to client matters and tries to maintain clarity for people facing difficult financial decisions.
Today she practices at Better Days Law Group in Michigan. Her current practice concentrates on consumer bankruptcy and related matters.
