Question:
While at a wedding reception at a casino this weekend, I was involved in an altercation which I did not start, defended myself and my wife against 5 assailants, when security arrived I allowed them to pin me to the ground anticipating cuffs until the situation was resolved, however they allowed the 5 to continue kicking, and stomping me in the face head neck and back, I got off of the ground and fought back, against the 5, and the 3 security guards. After beating back the hoarde (humor) I allowed the guards to cuff me, they took their revenge on my right wrist almost breaking it, then "explained" the story to the crowd. Most of which dispersed before the cops arrival. My wife tried telling the worthless cops the truth, but they only wanted to hear the story from the poorly trained and mismanaged security force, infuriating her more. I got three misdemeanor offensive touching, she got a disorderly conduct. What kind of lawyers should we be looking for.
Answer:
First, hire a criminal defense attorney. You can find one at Martindale.com if you don't have one in mind already. Then, you should consult with a civil trial attorney. The criminal defense attorney may have a good recommendation for the other attorney. If not, try martindale again. If the criminal attorney recommends him/herself, I would look for another attorney. It is very rare that an attorney is good in both areas of the law.
Whatever you do, don't go for the "Pre-paid Legal" option. Their attorneys may be adequate, but the best attorneys don't need to affilliate with those "low cost" services to attract clients. Some big name firms may allow their low level associates to take those cases, but you won't get their top attorneys.
