In my opinion, you need a seasoned litigator with experience in civil and criminal litigation. Someone who understands the case that has already been adjudicated and has the ability to properly utilize the case file in civil court would be very useful. Our firm regularly handles all varieties of both civil and criminal litgation and would be happy to discuss the matter further if you like. Regarding a counter-claim, I would need to know more about the facts of the case and how events played out.
