Q: What lawyer needed for me the victim against attacker and police department
Representation in pre warrant court to get correct warrant and also later against attacker whom is the son in law for lost wages etc. And again against police department for mishandling and denial of my right to have had my attacker arrested in a timely fashion when asked 3 times already.
A:
You can always file civil suits for assault or other intentional torts agains the person that harmed you, witn the big limit being if they have assets or insurance policies that you (and the lawyer) can collect against. Otherwise you are just going to get a paper judgement that is worthless and no lawyer is going to assist.
As for suing the Police, that is very difficult as you don't have a right to have the police arrest who you want. More likely your best remedy is to lodge complaints and raise awareness about the actions of your local law enforcement to induce change. Voting is also a great way to stop abusive or negligent police activities as new leadership is often very responsive.
