Think Twice

If you want a lawyer that has not care or concern towards your case hire Matthew Dudley. If you want a lawyer that has zero communication, hire Matthew Dudley. If you want a lawyer who is unprepared for all court cases hire Matthew Dudley. If you want a lawyer who in the end helps you loose your cour...t case, hire Matthew Dudley. If you want a lawyer who responds to all your questions and inquires as if you are an annoyance and weeks later, go ahead and hire Matthew Dudley. If you want a lawyer who hangs up on you and doesn't call you back during high conflict times of your divorce, hire Matthew Dudley. If you want a lawyer who doesn't tell you of court dates until the day before, go ahead and hire Matthew Duddley. He is has no social skills, communication skills, lawyer skills, or any humanity as far as I could tell. I should have just written a check to my ex-wife a year before the divorce was final just not to have to deal with my horrible lawyer, who was Matthew Duddley.

The right choice for us!

Matthew was very direct and got straight to the facts. We were referred to him by a co-worker AND a friend working at another family law office. He was completely honest and shared all communication with me between him and the other attorney. His fee's were reasonable and fair. He stood up for me whe...n I needed that and took so much anxiety out of this whole process for me. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to be heard and get things done.

Couldn't Have Had A Better Lawyer

Matthew is AMAZING! I was referred to him by a co-worker, who's friend was using him. When I arrived at Matthew's office, I was broken, scared and physically sick. My ex was a bully. I didn't know how to break the cycle. Matthew's first words to me where "come in, she who doubts herself". He was dire...ct and honest. There was no sugar coating anything. He told me if I was out of line in things regarding my ex but backed me up when it was the right thing to do. Matthew does not tolerate bullies! He will do what is necessary for you and your child. He will fight for you and present your case TRUTHFULLY in court. Matthew is affordable. He will not charge you ridiculous fees. Full disclosure, if you imagine an attorney's office with fancy desks, a receptionist and water cooler....this is not the office. Matthew works in organized chaos and he remembers EVERYTHING. It's important to note that Matthew is one of the busiest divorce lawyers in town. He spends a good part of the week in court, so it can be difficult to reach him, but he will get back to you! I have grown quite fond of Matthew over the last 15 months. I wouldn't change a thing about having Matthew represent me. Now that my divorce is final, I am going to truly miss Mr. Dudley, aka Mr. Grinch.

Best lawyer in Spokane

I was referred to Matthew Dudley by numerous people, so I knew he had to be one of the best lawyers in town. Everyone that I talked to said that he really cares for children, and that he takes into consideration the emotional feelings that come with a divorce case. With my case, my ex lived in Canada..., and I had two children that I wanted full custody of. Matthew took my case and said he would fight for what I wanted to get out of the case; my two children and a fair, equal split of our properties and money. Matthew did exactly that and I was very happy with the outcome of my case. Mr. Dudley takes time out of his weekend to make sure you know he is there for you. If you ever need to contact him you have his personal phone number, and if he doesn't answer he calls you right back no matter what time or day. Matthew is an incredible lawyer and I would refer him to anyone. If you are looking for a lawyer that is tough and will fight for everything that you want out of your case then Matthew is excellent for the job.

The Real Deal

Matthew Dudley is an excellent attorney who gets the job done. He doesn't mess around with platitudes and does not beat around the bush: he tells it like it is and will be your best advocate. He has a passion for doing what is right; so, if you want to do otherwise, he is not your guy. Mr. Dudley's ...legal expertise and finesse in the courtroom exceeded my every expectation. I am very pleased with his representation and would highly recommend him to friends. A single caveat: If you have a ton of extra money and need someone to hold your hand and be your attorney/therapist, you should probably hire a high-priced lawyer who will talk to you on the phone/email you as often and as long as you like, charging $$$$ per hour. However, if you are looking for an attorney with a solid understanding of the law and a heart of gold who won't waste your time and money chatting unnecessarily, hire Mr. Dudley.
