My mother passed away last month due to gross medical negligence/malpractice. She went to a county run health clinic. I am being told by attorneys that they wouldn't make enough money on the suit for it to be worth their while due to federal regulations on settlement amounts. I have googled, but apparently, I have not put in the correct search terms. Could someone please tell me what these are, and if it would be possible for me to persue action myself?

You have been contacting lawyers that work under contingency where you don't pay them they take a % of the settlement.If they don't think there will be a settlement they will not take the case. The only way you could do this is to hire a lawyer that you pay by the hour which is very expensive.
