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!

Most outstanding attorney ever!

In my experience, it is rare that I feel compelled to write a review for someone unless they have done truly exceptional work. This is only the second time I have ever written a review, the first being for a mortgage lender. With that said, I have to say that Matthew Dudley is an extraordinary and ou...tstanding and somewhat miraculous family attorney who has truly gone above and beyond for us. We initially learned about Matthew Dudley through a friend, who had been turned down by him for representation. I was therefore hesitant when we first met, but Mr. Dudley quickly proved to be a no-nonsense attorney who tells the truth and is extremely direct, even to the point of being abrasive at times. He will not sugarcoat anything or act as a therapist, but rather, he will fight for you and your family. My father always told me to hire an attorney that other attorneys fear going up against, and Mr. Dudley fits that description. He is there to represent you and your family to the best of his ability. We hired Matthew Dudley to help us become de facto parents to our great granddaughter, and after a year of working with him, we went to trial. Matthew Dudley is an excellent trial lawyer, with a dynamic approach and a knack for finding and presenting key information that helped us get everything we asked for. He is also very respectful towards opposing counsel, and I believe that his attention to detail and careful preparation were key to our success in court. If you are considering hiring Matthew Dudley as your family attorney, I highly recommend him. He is dedicated to his clients, reasonably priced, and will always fight for you and your family. Just be sure to be honest with him and remember that he hates to repeat himself, so it is important to listen carefully to what he tells you. He will return your calls and emails as needed, although at times it may feel like you have not heard from him in a while - this is simply because there is no need for communication, and it is how he keeps his prices affordable. In short, you will not regret hiring Matthew Dudley as your attorney, and he will always be our family's go-to lawyer.

Spokane's Best Family Law Lawyer

I have nothing new to add that hasn't already been said about this man. He is amazing at what he does and I will forever be grateful for his help. I love that he makes himself available to clients, that he actually responds to emails and return calls. When I was looking around for a lawyer I can't te...ll you how many offices said that they 'would check the availability of their attorneys and get back to me' to never be heard from again. Mr. Dudley returned my call the same day and we were able to set up a time to meet that week. He was honest about what to expect, stayed in contact and provided me with everything I needed. Mr. Dudley is everything people say he is and there is a reason that he is one of the most recommended family law lawyers in our area. I would recommend him to anyone that thinks that they may be facing a difficult divorce or family law issue. I hope that I will never need to use him again, but should I ever face another issue he's going to be the only lawyer I call.
