Scarlett is an associate attorney at the Burdge Law Office in Dayton, Ohio. Scarlett joined Burdge Law Office in 2016 to combine two of her passions: helping people and cars. She focuses her practice on consumer protection cases, including lemon law and breach of warranty cases for cars, motorcycles, and RVs, and auto sales fraud. 

Scarlett has represented Ohio and Kentucky consumers as lead counsel on several jury trials and arbitrations involving auto sale fraud and Lemon Law claims. She is licensed to practice law in both Ohio, Kentucky, and multiple federal trial and appellate courts. Scarlett considers closing arguments to be one of the most crucial and exciting parts of trial since it is the last opportunity to drive home a client’s frustration of purchasing a defective vehicle. 

Scarlett is a Kentucky native. She received her bachelor’s degree from Northern Kentucky University and attended the University of Kentucky College of Law. While in law school, Scarlett participated on the trial team and she also volunteered pro bono to help individuals in eastern Kentucky to secure clean drinking water. Scarlett’s previously legal experience as a court staff attorney awards her a unique understanding of how a judge thinks and manages their courtroom. 

Scarlett comes from a family of car enthusiasts. When she was young, Scarlett enjoyed helping her father work on the family car in the driveway. On ‘bring your daughter to work’ day, she learned to wet sand and prepare a vehicle to be painted. These days, Scarlett enjoys teaching her two children about cars and taking her 1965 Chevrolet Corvair to shows despite it being not even close to being a show quality car.
