Lawyer for prosecuting an aggressor

A colleague of mine, a girl, has beekn fisically attached by a man, so much many people had to interveen to old him to the ground, and now we made a police report but i want a lawyer involved both for the penal and the civil aspect of the dispute since there was some property damages. Can somebody tell me were to look? maybe somebody with particolar attention to violence on wiman. i already have some names but i prefer to ask here also. A lenghty police report with material evidences has been already filed but i don t want to later discover this wasn t enough. he litterally went back to work has nothing happened while she was in the police station.

If the attacker will be criminally charged the case will be prosecuted by the state prosecutor not a lawyer of your choice, finding an attorney that suits you for the civil case does not need to be done right away and you can take your time finding a proper one, the fact that he went to work just means that the police think that the reasons for custody havent been met.

Section 67

Reasons for Custody

The accused person may be taken to custody only if his actions or other specific circumstances lead to a reasonable belief that he shall

a) escape or hide to avoid criminal prosecution or penalty, especially if he cannot be identified at the moment, if he does not have a permanent residence or if he faces a high penalty,

b) influence witnesses or co-accused persons that have not yet been heard or in other ways thwart clarification of circumstances substantial for criminal prosecution, or

c) repeat criminal activity he is prosecuted for, perpetrate an attempted crime or commit a crime he has been preparing or threatened with,

and circumstances so far ascertained indicate that the act, which the criminal prosecution has been initiated for, was committed, has all attributes of a criminal offence, there are evident reasons to belief that the offence was committed by the accused person and with regard to the his character and to the nature and seriousness of the offence the purpose of custody cannot be reached by other means at the time of making the decision on custody.

What do you think is the civil claim btw? Propety damage can also be criminal, especially if it is a result of a criminal act.
