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!

Fight tooth and nail and focus on what matters most for your child

I hired Matthew for a messy child-custody battle full of underhanded tactics and lies. From our first meeting, he had a clear game plan, refused to let the other side get away with manipulation, and always kept my child’s best interests front and center. He didn’t hold back calling out every dirty t...rick and outright falsehood they tried. In court, his cross-exams were aggressive but totally professional, and he tore apart their false narratives one by one. Because of his laser-focused advocacy, the judge saw through all their fabrications and ruled in my favor. It was exactly what my child and I needed, and honestly, the best money I’ve ever spent I only wish I’d brought him on board sooner. If you want someone who’ll fight tooth and nail while staying smart and strategic, Matthew’s your guy. He’ll call out the BS, and focus on what matters most for your child, and deliver real results.

Matthew Dudley is the very best!

Mr. Dudley is truly the finest family attorney available. He possesses a remarkable intellect and takes a straightforward approach to his practice. His expertise in family law is unparalleled. You can trust that he won't waste your time or money. My recommendation is to engage with him by attentively... following his guidance—be factual and direct. I understand it can be challenging, but strive to set aside your emotions. If you’re seeking an attorney with a warm and nurturing demeanor, he's not that kind of lawyer & if you’re being honest with yourself that is not the type of lawyer you need or want in your corner. However, if you want someone who is knowledgeable in family law and will advocate fiercely on your behalf, Matthew is the right choice! He truly stands out as the best family lawyer in our area, making him the ally you want by your side!

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!
