Talk Story with an Advertiser: E.F. (Eddy) Cash-Dudley, Attorney
Planning for, and making, end-of-life decisions is not easy. Neither are navigating issues regarding divorce and child custody. That’s why E.F. (Eddy) Cash-Dudley provides a variety of legal services with a caring and personal touch. Her advice to clients is, “Protect yourself and your family.”
Eddy has been practicing law since 1982, and has been licensed in Hawai‘i since 2008. She has taught Community Property and Issues in Family Law classes at Laurence Driven School of Law at Humphrey’s College, as well as conducted seminars at Modesto Community College, Stanislaus County Library, and various paralegal clinics. She has authored three books, and has been a certificated mediator since 2003.
Eddy’s current family law practice includes divorce, child custody, child support, adoption, wills, and trusts. Clients say she is “a caring and seasoned attorney,” and have praised her compassion while she helped guide them through unexpected experiences.
Born and raised in the San Joaquin Valley, California, Eddy took the Hawai‘i State Bar examination in 2007, and was sworn in to the State Bar of Hawai‘i in 2008, before her move to Hawai‘i Island in 2014.
Seeing the need for low-cost estate planning, Eddy began by preparing last wills and testaments and advance health care directives for seniors.
“Take the time for yourself and your family to determine what is important at the end of your life,” she advises. “Put your estate plan in place so that your choices are honored at end of life and after death. By putting these powerful documents in place, your family can be protected during their greatest time of need.”
In addition to estate planning, Eddy has a limited family law practice, primarily in the South Kohala District Court. She conducts appointments that are convenient for her clients, including by phone, Facetime, Skype, or Zoom.
With offices in Waimea and Captain Cook, Eddy also provides low-cost estate planning documents including durable financial powers of attorney, and revocable transfer on death deed, and trusts. She has expanded her family law practice to include adoptions, custody, and paternity cases.
Eddy is married to an animal nutritionist and has three children, seven grandchildren, and seven granddogs. She is an active member of the North Hawai‘i Rotary and North Hawai‘i Domestic Violence Action Committee. She is also on the board of the Waimea Community Theater, participates in 100 Women Who Care, and pledges quarterly donations to small nonprofits on the island.
