sexual harassment and employment discrimination suits with good merits lose in court. A lot.

English rule for attorney's fees in defamation/libel cases would be a good start; better anti-SLAPP laws.

Why not make trials have a smaller monetary factor by limiting how much you _can_ spend on a trial? E.g. limited attn salaries
