Matthew J Dudley

My husband recently hired Matthew Dudley last summer for an interstate custody case against his ex who used our son as a pawn to punish him when she didn’t get her way, along with just not making him go to school and letting him roam freely at 6 years old. Dudley helped us construct a fair parenting ...plan once our son had been in Washington long enough to obtain residency and made the process quick and easy, even when birth mom responded with outrageous demands. I also contracted Dudley’s services in 2015 to establish a parenting plan for my own daughter. I had come out of an abusive relationship and had a hard time speaking up for myself and Dudley’s no-nonsense attitude made me feel secure in my decisions and sure that my controlling ex would meet his match. Dudley has come through for our family time and time again and there’s no one else we could possibly trust with ensuring we have fair rights as parents and what needs to be done will get done as efficiently as possible. We hired Dudley twice because he has represented people in my family, my husbands family, and many of our acquaintances and friends. If you’re looking for a family lawyer then absolutely give him a call, it will be more than worth it.

Matthew Dudley. An amazing lawyer. Tough. Direct. Straight forward and to the point. He doesn’t mess around. He is always available and punctual. He doesn’t waste his or your time. Leads you in the right direction with your case. Gives options on how to handle the paperwork if you are willing and ab...le to put in the work and charges accordingly at a fair price. I hired him for my divorce dealing with DM and 4 children. I didn’t care much for materialistic items but Dudley proved to handle that with finesse. I cared for my children’s safety and my own. He informed me of all possibilities and led me towards the most likely to take place. To our surprise the judge took a much more stern approach that resulted in my favor. He kept me from falling into my emotions and to think clearly and respectively. Which if you have or currently are going through a divorce you know how difficult it can be to not let your emotions take control. I was able to reach him at the most unexpected times for guidance on how to handle unexpected life events through out the divorce process. He is very communicative and keeps it simple. If you want someone who is going to coddle you, sympathize with you, or acknowledge your emotions, find yourself a counselor. Matthew Dudley is a lawyer and amazing at it. Don’t let his direct, stern, and disciplined character scare you away! You won’t regret hiring him.

Mr Dudley was referred to me by the counselor I was seeing. She said he was tough and he wins cases. So I googled him and found that he doesn't have a large firm or any paralegals, he does all the work himself. I called him and made an appointment to meet and explain my situation. I was in an abusive... relationship and needed help in getting a protection order and a divorce. This went to trial and Mr Dudley was amazing in his presentation and strategy, and the court ruled in favor of everything we had asked for. Mr Dudley's "bedside manner" is rough and he seems to have no compassion for what you're going through; but I would encourage anyone to keep going, he is actually prepping you for court. He is on your side, professional, experienced, and will go the extra mile to win your case. His fees are very reasonable and he does not waste any time or your money.
