The best family law attorney in Spokane

This is the second time I have hired Mr. Dudley and just as the first time he did not disappoint. His rates are reasonable, he is willing to work with you, he is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He is always available, weekdays, weekends, early in the morning. He is a no nonsense attorney. H...e helped me obtain 50/50 custody of children during my initial divorce and a highly contested custody case and help me obtain sole custody just recently. Both times we went to trial and Mr. Dudley was extremely well prepared. I would recommend him to anyone I know that is going though divorce and /or has a difficult custody case that they are dealing with. Especially fathers that sometimes tend to go into custody cases at a disadvantage. Don't let anyone dictate the time you get with your kids, contact Mr. Matthew J. Dudley and have him fight for you as he has fought not only for me but for countless others.

You Need Dudley on your Side!

The best of the best. He knows how to navigate the opposition with knowledge and a sharpness that is unmatched. He isn’t going to make you feel warm and fuzzy, but when you need the big guns in a scary situation, he is it. We started with an unfit biological mom who decided to suddenly fight for cust...ody and ended with a full stepparent adoption. He knows what he is doing— put your feelings aside, seek a counselor to help with those, and let Dudley fight for you!

I highly recommend!

Matthew is phenomenal! I can't recommend him highly enough. I had hired another attorney but was frustrated with the lack of communication and follow through. A friend of mine had previously hired Matthew for custody issue and she raved about him. Matthew is direct and to the point, which I appreciat...e. There isn't handholding but that's what I pay my therapist for. He doesn't over-promise and definitely delivers. He operates with absolute precision, is extremely knowledgeable and communicates when needed. If you are looking for the best Matthew is it!

Best attorney you will find

I needed to hire a lawyer for a child mediation case. I wanted to make sure I had all my options before the trial. Mr. Dudley came highly recommended and I couldn’t be more great full. He was very professional and laid out all my options for me. I understood everything that was going on throughout al...l the proceedings and I couldn’t have been in better hands. I have recommended him to all my friends and family to use him. I was always use him as my lawyer.

Clear and concrete. Straight forward.

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.
