I am trying. It's extremely difficult to get a lawyer that is willing to go to bat against one of the largest and most powerful county governments in the state.

I can't even get the feds to go after a former county agency head who bilked half a million dollars from the federal COVID relief funds... what does that tellya?

I call bullshit there is always a lawyer around if you’re willing to pay them and actually have a case.

That may be true for where you live, and half the battle is finding the lawyer... I sued a large company for ADA rights, pro se, and won in federal civil court. I spent a year trying to find an attorney and no attorney would take the case because the DAMAGES were deemed too small. So I took my own case to court and won my minimal amount of damages.
