A: To address issues of malicious prosecution and falsified documents used against you, you need to consult with a lawyer experienced in criminal defense and civil litigation. They can guide you through the process of gathering evidence and filing a lawsuit for malicious prosecution. This lawyer will help you demonstrate that the charges were unfounded and initiated with malice.

If you wish to pursue criminal charges against the person who filed false statements, you need to report the misconduct to law enforcement or the district attorney's office. Provide all relevant evidence, including court documents and any proof of falsehoods, to support your case. The authorities will investigate and decide whether to prosecute the individual for filing false statements or perjury.

Additionally, consider filing a civil lawsuit for damages incurred due to the malicious prosecution. This can include financial losses, emotional distress, and damage to your reputation. Your lawyer can assist you in seeking compensation and ensuring that justice is served.
