Sorry to hear what happened to you. You can find many excellent attorneys using the Find a Lawyer tab on the Lawyers.com homepage. Keep in mind that the statute of limitations for intentional torts such as assault / battery is one (1) year from the date of the incident. Also, unless your assailant has significant assets (real property, $, etc.), you might have a hard time finding an attorney interested in the case - no one wants to pursue a case against a defendant with no $.
