That's rough. I'd at least talk to a lawyer, but ofc securing housing and health comes first.

They wouldn't win any meaningful monetary value from talking to a lawyer tbh

I sue out of spite tbh. Make the bastards fight for it at least

They could call around asking for pro bono. The firms wright off the costs as charity, but they could still get some in legal fees from the opposition if they win. Tbh though i pay for legal insurance because i hate fraudsters like this, not it helps someone screwed after the fact.
