This site aims to help airline passengers who face
arrogant and unfair treatment with little access
to affordable legal advice. In respond to airline
abuse and irresponsible behavior, suetheairlines.org provides
you specific tools to file a complaint against airlines,
read about actual
cases against airlines, laws
and statutes, write
your congressman about any
concerns regarding mistreatment by airlines and join
the forum where you can share stories and learn different
cases of airline related offenses.
The Small
Claims Court is an effective way to haul the
airlines to the bar of justice at minimum cost
to you and with maximum inconvenience to the airline.
We have sample
small claims documents for your guidance and
information to help you in knowing
in what state it is best to file your claim.
