What's the best way to save old text messages?

Assuming you might need them for legal proof in the future

My sister has a crazy ex who stalked her for a while. She's free and safe now and has been for several months, but she has a new phone and new phone number that is not linked to her old one. (for obvious reasons.) The old phone is a piece of junk that barely charges at all. It looks like it's on it's last legs and going to die. We took it to a place to fix it and was told that there was no way as even the repair person couldn't figure out how to charge it. Even with a new battery it does not charge.

We'd like to get all the ex's old messages off the phone to keep them just in case it's necessary in the future. The text messages are not saved on the sd card though and they seem to only come up on the phone itself. Is there a legit way to transfer all the text messages to a laptop or something? Or is the only way to photograph frame by frame each message with a separate camera?
