Matthew J Dudley

A little over a year ago I hired Mr. Dudley as my attorney for a divorce and custody battle. With no idea what I was getting myself into, and feeling in the dark over a situation I felt I had little to no control over. With that being said Matthew swept me up and kept me going during the hardest time... of my life. If you are looking for someone to console you or make you feel better, this is not your guy. He is very straight to the point and blunt but man does he get the job done. He was always available when I needed, always got back to me in a timely fashion and was very organized. I would give me a 100 star rating out of 5. If you want the best you will get the best with Mr. Dudley.

I was recommended by my former attorney who suggested Matthew. Due to the fact she was not a trail attorney. My soon to be ex husband is not at all a compromising type of person. When I met with Matthew I knew right off the bat that he would be one of my blessings. When we spoke I truly appreciate...d the fact that he is who he is. He is straight forward and tells you like it is. Does not sugar coat anything. You are fully prepared on everything. He speaks from experience and does not just tell you what you want to hear to make it all better. My case went to a special trial. Unfortunately we were given trial dates many times, but at no fault to Matthew they were cancelled many times by the court. I have been trying to get a divorce since 2015 and now awaiting the Judges ruling. My case involved a minor child whom is a teenager. No matter what the out come of my case. He did everything I wanted and then some. He amazed me in court. He speaks direct question after question. He is there to win your case. He doesn't go on and on about non sense issues on the stand just to hear him self talk. He put me to easy and helped me understand how the entire process works. I could go on and on about how great he is. I will say that if you need an attorney to get it done and done the right way the first time around Matthew Dudley is your guy. I have the nothing, but respect for Mr Dudley. Thank you for always being up front and honest with me. I did see some reviews have stated Matthew as being rude. I don't consider an Attorney rude when he is just telling you like it is straight and to the point. So I say this, people before you write your reviews think to yourself. Did He do everything he could with the facts that were given to him. Take a step outside and look in with different eyes. Just because everything thing didn't go your way does not make him a bad attorney. He nor any attorney can predict the out come of any case. No attorney likes losing a case. Unfortunately having to go to any attorney for family law is awful and painful. I don't wish having to go though this on my worse enemy. But if you ever find yourself in need of one Mr Dudley should be yours. Thank you Matthew! P.S. He does have a great sense of humor.

I should have written a review a long time ago. Matthew Dudley was recommended to me by a friend who knows a lot about family law, she told me Mr Dudley is affordable, (I had very little money) honest and a bull dog in the court room and she was not wrong. Mr Dudley it's straight foreword and to the... point, he doesn't beat around the bush or charge you for every little thing he can. When I went to meditation for my kids he was up front about the things I wouldn't win on, he told me we can take this to court and spend your money but this particular thing you aren't going to get, which I very much appreciated. He could have charged me and gone to court but he was honest with me instead and for that I am forever grateful. He will not hold your hand and baby you because he knows that gets you nowhere so if that's what you need, find another lawyer if you want honesty and results then definitely hire Dudley. I have and will continue to recommend him. He works long hours and is a fantastic lawyer!

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.

After spending 11K on previous attorneys to get me a final parenting plan, I searched out for a bulldog attorney, who wasn't afraid to be my advocate, and do what I needed. I watched Matthew in court proceeding a few times to make sure he was right for me.... and boy was he!!!! He is so direct and to... the point (which doesn't waste your money), knows how to make a stand for his clients. Yes, as others have stated he is very direct and not afraid to call bull when he sees it!! (Don't you want a man like that on your side???) Which I greatly respect, and appreciate as it is easy to get caught up in the drama of child custody cases, with the he said/she said. He took care of all my concerns in a very appropriate time manner. When I would call and he was unable to answer, he would return my call right away. His fees are purely reasonable, if not better then most out there. He works seven days a week!!! He is committed to his clients and their families. My case had been going on six years, and I was so tired of attorneys jacking me around, Matt came right in and got the ball rolling. He kept me abreast on all the pertinent information. I received everything I wanted on my final parenting plan, and that was thanks to Matthews due diligence. I will use Matt as long as he is in practice and I tell everyone that I know that he is an amazing advocate for his clients. I will tell you this, if your one of those people that want someone to sugar coat everything involving your case, you won't like him, however I would encourage you to open your eyes and see that no one cares about all the drama that may be present in your case, they will care about that facts, and you will need someone who will be able to present the facts and prove your case in the court of law, then Matthew Dudley is your man!!!
