It is very unlikely this would be allowed in the US. In my Satae,lawyers can be fined for frivolous suits, so probably no one would be willing to touch this. Libel is not usually done on a contingency basis: the lawyer would want payment up front which would amount to hundreds - thousands of dollars that she would have to pay first.
