Here is part to the story. found out this evening this is on tape, my son went thur the drive thur, told to pull up which there was on one in line, anyway to make this short on tape is the handling of food without gloves and one boy spitting on the hamburger. His order was to be plain hamburger it had everything on it, the other was cut into pieces, no straws, they screwed everything up and all this over jealousy, the spitting on the food makes me very upset.

Hi. I am a Missouri attorney that handles claims in most parts of the state.

If you know for a fact that the actions have been recorded on tape, and you either have a copy of the tape, or have the means to obtain a copy of the tape (in a legal manner), the required elements of a potential suit for damages may be present here. Actions that are highly offensive to reasonable people and result in emotional distress, can justify the imposition of legal liability in many situations. The facts you have provided are not quite detailed enough to allow for the assessment of the likelihood of a successful claim. There are additional questions, such as: Who witnessed these actions?, Did they happen on more than one occasion?, etc..., that would allow a more complete evaluation of this situation.

I can be reached via e-mail at [email protected]. I hope this assists to some degree. Thank you.
