Expert's Assistant chat

Customer: United list my bag on Friday. I was traveling to a snowboarding vacation they lost all my gear and clothes and kosher food and other religious necessities. I still have not gotten my bag this ruined my entire trip. I have at least $8,000 in damages this is beside the religious aspect which is not is worth more than gold to me. In the meantime they keep saying it's coming but it never shows up. I would like to sue the airline and add in the religious aspect. I'm looking for a lawyer that can win a big settlement.
JA: The Lawyer can help you determine if you have a case. Where are you located? These laws vary by state.
Customer: Currently in Salt Lake city Utah flew in from nyc Newark
JA: Is there anything else the Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured that they'll be able to help you.
Customer: They really messed me over and I apple with at least 3 managers that said they can't do anything and refused to escalate my call to higher management.
