Question Suing former employer for violating ADA?

I am wondering. I just quit my job after 12 years and went to work for a new company where I love it. The new company is really very good about hiring deafies and providing interpreters for training, all meetings, etc.

My former employer has failed to accommodate my needs, such as interpreters for meetings, always had co workers write notes for me during meetings even if its planned or spur of moment, but they don't write word for word so I miss out on alot. Also no interpreter for cross training, hence difficulties in understanding aspects of different duties, which caused supervisor to "write me up"! UGH

Should I sue them or what do I do?

Thanks!

Did you request those accommodations in advance?
