Matthew J Dudley

Never have I worked with a more pragmatic individual, nor someone as adept in their field of practice as Matthew Dudley. Our case stagnated in the family court system for a very long time, and I needed an attorney to help navigate the intricacies of our case. Mr. Dudley was recommended to me by a...n acquaintance who described him as a bulldog, and as someone you'd hope to avoid arguing against at trial. He's not the first attorney I had a consultation with, but he's the only one I'd recommend. Early on in our case, I recognized a trend among some family law attorneys. Too much effort was spent trying to protect their working relationships with fellow attorneys, gravitating toward appeasement rather than trying to accomplish what your family wants/needs. But that's not Matthew Dudley. If you have a case, this guy will unabashedly lean into any conflict and bring it to resolution. He's effectively engineered a process to help more clients than (what I believe to be) a normal amount for an attorney in Spokane. Court dates and the ensuing conflict used to be the most stressful thing about my life, and hiring this guy offered a new experience. Listening to the man argue your case is a marvel to behold. Attorneys are paid by the hour, and this guy's ethics don't allow him to run up your bill trying to coddle your ego, talk about your day, or commiserate about how awful your ex-spouse has been lately. He wants to help your family, and does a fantastic job. I'll likely never be able to repay him for what he's enabled us to do for our kids. 10/10 would recommend.

Matt helped me with my parenting plan as well as my child support case. My case seemed easy at first but going through everything seemed a little much so I hired Matt. Matt helped explain everything to me while fighting for what was needed. He was patient and to the point and I felt he understood... and listened to what I needed. I would recommend Matt for any Family Law need and would hire him again in a second.

Matthew Dudley is the best! Tough as nails, straight forward communication and works long extended hours on evenings and weekends. He understood my case well, called me out of my own BS and baggage and work tirelessly in the face of my ex-wife’s several lawyers. He was fairly priced, counseled me ...personally with bits of good advice and professionally. I contacted him years latter as additional healthcare and educational issues came up with the ex and he remembered me and my case well. He jumped right back into helping me navigate current issues. Thank you Matthew Dudley you’re the best!

I was referred to Matthew by a psychologist friend who had witnessed him in court. I retained him to represent me in my divorce case. There were specific challenges that made my case difficult and he handled each in stride including international issues and protective orders. My experience with Mr. ...Dudley is that he is extremely fair and honest. He was timely in his return of my phone calls and e-mails. I would highly recommend him as a family law attorney.

Mr. Dudley has been my Laywer and mentor for 7 years . He has represented me through several trials and parenting plan modifications. He is always prepared, professional and honest. The safety and well-being of my two children is what's always at stake. My children are everything to me and I would n...ot trust there lives to anyone but Matthew Dudley. Thank you more than words Mr. Dudley . Sincerely Andrew L. 12/2/2018
