Matthew J Dudley

I lost my case to this man! He is an SOB in the courtroom and I wish I had got to him first!!! My children are back with me now (their choice) but in 2002 I walked out of that courtroom wanting to slap Malone (my attorney) in the face!!! Mathew Dudley was WAY more prepared than my attorney could ha...ve ever been! I am recommending him to my son now. You really can't go wrong with this man. Yes, it hurt me. Yes, I wanted to hurt him for making me look like a fool and taking my kids from me... But years later I see he would have been the only one I would want on my side! I can't wait to see how he handles my son's case. My granddaughter needs stability and it certainly isn't going to happen until Mathew takes over!!!

I was so happy to find Mr. Dudley after many attempts on my own and with other attorneys help. Going into a court room is always nerve racking and stressful. I am no lawyer, and I don't understand the language. I only want not to be taken advantage of, with Matthews knowledge, kind heart and great u...nderstanding the importance of children being with both parents, I feel he is fair and very respectable and would recommend him for all family law, my only regret is I did not find him earlier.

Ok, on this site it says finding the right lawyer is crucial, I dont know what there punch line is. Bottom line this is the best lawyer in Spokane, I almost want to say state wide, but, I dont want to be to crazy sounding. My story: I hired Matt Dudley in a panic back in November of 2013, I heard fro...m a source he is a bulldog in the court room, with my case, it was deffinately needed and I didnt care what it cost. I came to him with my story. First thing he says is to take the emotion out of it, get to the point. I paid him and the battle began. His personality is direct, to the point, no emotion, no holding your hand, but isnt that what you want in the courtroom???? Stop being sensitive people of Spokane, a 6.5 rating is bullshit. Matt took my case, gave me the facts, and told me what my responsibility was. Answered all my questions. The first day I appeared in court I didnt know what he was going to pull, but I knew if he had the bulldog attitude with me he would deffinately have it with my ex's attorney. By the end of the first temporary plan hearing Mr. Dudley had her attorney choking, and scrambling for facts. My ex fired her attorney it was so bad. So then she got another attorney, and Matt just stayed humble, and too the point. Once the final court date came which was on May 19th, he nailed every fact in the plan, some facts I didnt even know were in hers. Had her lost for words on the stand, and hitting key points acting like it was his last case. He had her second attorney doing the same thing the first one did, and I won shared custody of my son even when people told me it wasnt going to happen. THIS IS THE BEST ATTORNEY YOUR MONEY WILL BUY, if you care about being heard in court, and winning. THIS Lawyer has the most confidents in the courtroom, trust me when I say he is a blessing. He made sure I was represented and made sure my son got the time he deserved with his dad. I will never hire anyone else from here on out. He needs a 10 rating.

Matthew will represent his clients to the best of his abilities. I have read his other reviews and the negative remarks left here, I believe they are his strongest points. People below have said he is short on the phone or when answering questions, I say thank you Matt for keeping it short, this stu...ff cost money. People say he is rude to them or have talked down to them. I call this the Matthew Dudley pre trial, If you can't cut it in his office , you are going to do far worse in court. Matthew never told me i was going to win, actually he let me know that nothing was ever carved in stone. I have spent twice the money on other attorneys whom didn't have have the knowledge needed to make my case work. All I can say is ... I emotion you Matt.

Matthew Dudley represented me in the Fall of 2013 in regards to my divorce/parenting plan. Mr. Dudley was able to adequately explain processes to me, supported me in gathering the necessary depositions, returned my phone calls in a timely manner, provided me with advance information of impending cour...t dates. Mr. Dudley proved to be an excellent representative in the courtroom, adequately presenting information to the court and responding to the other party. In my interactions with him and throughout this process I continuously felt that his actions were related to the best interests of my children as well as in line with the law. I found him to be extremely ethical.
