Your question is not a family law question, but is a "torts" question and appears to be in the sub-specialty of "1983" actions: "The Civil Rights Act of 1871 is a federal statute, numbered 42 U.S.C. § 1983, that allows people to sue the government for civil rights violations. It applies when someone acting “under color of” state-level or local law has deprived a person of rights created by the U.S. Constitution or federal statutes."
I suggest that you start your search for consultation/representation by calling tort lawyers (you can start with the ones that adevertise for auto crashes, etc.), and ask for referrals for attorneys who specialize in bringing false imprisonment/1983 cases; I thin you will eventually end up talking to a specialist who can more completely advise you as to your rights and options.
