Considering the circumstance, it was a pleasure to have Ron Burdge and Beth Wells on our side fighting the good fight. Scarlett, Alana, and Linda completed our team of experts. I do mean experts! Our RV was a lemon from day one. The RV spent most of its useless life in the shop. After a full year of attempting repair we decided to seek help. After a long, exhaustive search (there are many who claim RV attorney fame) we decided on the best, Burdge Law Firm. You will not be disappointed with Burdge Law Firm. They were by our side on our journey and always available to assist with our concerns. In case you’re wondering…WE WON! A little advice..DOCUMENT EVERYTHING!

They are amazing! Highly recommend! They helped us in what seemed to be an impossible situation with an older vehicle.

My wife and I hired Ron Burdge to represent us in a Federal law suit against an RV manufacturer. We signed an engagement agreement and paid a retainer of just over $10,000.00. Ron Burdge emphatically stated "after the initial retainer is paid, you do not have to pay anything more and we(Burdge Law) pursue recovery of attorney fees from the defendant on top of what they pay or do for you in your case". One of his associates did initially disclose that some additional out-of-pocket expenses could arise during the course of litigation, but those costs were minimized. It wasn't until nearly 2 months later that the real out-of-pocket costs were revealed to us: 1. Cost of deposition, $8000 to $10,000. 2. Cost of an expert witness, $10,000 to $30,000. 3. Trial costs, $15,000 to $30,000. 4. Cost of mediation, $2500 to $3500. In addition to these possible out-of-pocket costs, a staff member contacted my wife and I and requested we remit a payment of $1000 related to supply costs. We reluctantly agreed, but kept faith that Ron Burdge could deliver a favorable conclusion to our lawsuit. Eight months went by since our lawsuit was filed, during which a few clerical updates were required by the court and the customary disclosures by both us as the plaintiffs and the defendant were made to each other. At about this time in the process the court mandated that both parties enter into mediation to try and reach a resolution. Burdge Law prepared a summary report that they presented to the mediator. Much to our surprise the report was very carelessly and negligently compiled; both my wife's and my name were incorrectly entered and someone else was named as the plaintiffs, nearly one-half of the issues we experienced with our motor coach were omitted from the report, the report was not organized in a concise and cohesive manner in an effort to eliminate redundancy of the facts and present our case in a compelling and understandable fashion. Ron Burdge simply cut and pasted many of my emails to his office as evidence for the basis for our lawsuit. To top it off, the summary report detailed Ron Burdge's attorney fees to be in excess of $40,000. Now mind you, very little was done during the past 8 months regarding our lawsuit as it wasn't required by the court. In the settlement offer made by the defendants during mediation, payment for Ron Burdge's attorney fees by the defendants were denied by the defendants. Contrary to what we were told initially, Ron Burdge advised us that the defendants had the right to deny paying his fees and that, should we agree to the proposed settlement, his attorney fees would be subtracted from the settlement offer that was made to us. Taking into account the out-of-pocket costs we had already incurred filing the lawsuit, the loss of use of the motor coach for over a year while continually making installment payments on it's loan, and the possibility that we may be liable to pay taxes on the full settlement amount, we found ourselves at even a greater financial loss than before we started the lawsuit. Ron Burdge's advice to us was that sometimes it might be better to walk away with less, than to endure what he perceived as a long and difficult road ahead in pursuing this lawsuit. We rejected capitulating and wanted to 'stay the course' but also requested Ron Burdge disclose his accounting for attorney fee "accumulation" during the previous 8 months. When we received the fee statement from Burdge Law we were shocked that a 'whole lot of nothing' accrued to exceed $40,000 and the disclosure that Ron Burdge's hourly rate was $525/hr. We asked Ron Burdge to clarify many of the "accumulating" entries. What transpired is that Ron Burdge terminated us as clients. It is my opinion that if you have a complicated federal case that involves a very expensive RV, Ron Burdge should be the last attorney you call, as he lacks the fiduciary responsibility necessary in an attorney/client relationship. Beware the self aggrandizing attorney, they typically are out to serve only themselves(in my opinion).

Great people

My wife and I had never needed a lawyer until lemon law took effect for our new car. We contacted Burdge Law Office based on their experience, and we were very happy with the results. The staff were always friendly, responded with great efficiency, and provided outstanding guidance in securing us a very favorable settlement from the auto manufacturer of our new car. If you ever need a law firm for lemon law, we highly recommend Burdge.

Burdge Law are amazing. They handled my case for a defective RV/travel trailer with minimal hassle on my end. The process was speedy and they were so effective the manufacturer took it back and gave me a full refund. Couldn't if had this result without them. Would recommend to everyone.

I have never had such a great experience with a lawyers office. Everyone was so helpful. Thank you for helping me have a great outcome with my lemon of a car.

I am very fortunate that I found Ron and Linda on the web doing a google search one night. I was told there was nothing I could do with a new boat that gets transmissions as frequent as oil changes from my local legal firms because my state does not have a lemon law. When I found Burdge Law on the internet I sent my information in honestly didn't have high expectation give what I was already told. Within days I get an email that they will "Take my case". I was amazed after the review that they listed more than 5 laws that were broke that would be the bases for my case! From this point on, they run the show and the only thing I had to do work on a fair settlement. The customer service is the best I have experienced and I always felt that my best interest was being sought after. It took a while for the settlement but Linda is a warrior and took the defendants attorney to task! My deal was EVERYTHING I asked for and could not be happier. Without question I would recommend the Burdge Law team to anyone!!

My wife and I hired Ron to sue Nexus RV, one of the worst RV manufacturers. He and his team achieved a more than favorable outcome, and were consummate professionals. Highly recommended.
