Okay, understand that if you want to sue you not only have to have grounds AND damages, you will also need to come up with about $20,000 on the low end. How much are you willing to put on the table just to roll the dice and hope that MAYBE you might get your attorney's fees back. Fee waivers are a very small portion of the total cost.
And if you try to sue in Superior Court pro se, understand that you will be held to the same standard as an attorney that spent three to four years attending law school and has practiced tort law for years. That's a difficult thing ... are you up to that task? Are you willing to spend the time (a couple of years, probably) and money to pay for depositions, investigators, etc.?
If you are suing in Small Claims Court, you will have to sue for actual damages, not how much your ego was hurt.
