That's already the case. The government has governmental immunity. If you sue the government and lose you have to pay the governments attorney's fees. If you win the government has to pay yours.

If you have nothing to lose governmental immunity doesn't mean shit. If you have anything to lose you're probably not going to sue the government. Needless to say the current system is being abused by lawyers due to the fact that there are many people who have nothing to lose. Particularly illegal immigrants who can change their identity overnight.
