Well let's say $30k, treble damages to $90k. So up to 45 hours of billable time before losing money. I don't know how much time a suit takes, but I'm pretty sure it's more than that. I don't know how likely it is for them to award legal fees, either.
Even if they work on contingency, they'd still have to be sure they'd win and turn a profit before they'd take the case.
