Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

I am looking for an attorney to sue the police for wrongful arrest. I was charged with reckless endangerment but did no such thing. The child woke up at 2 am and went outside. DFAX stated they did not know why I was locked up because to them it was an accident. I did no physical harm to the child. We were all sleeping. He is 6 years old and has several issues. ADHD , oppositional defiant just to name a few. Everyone in the house was sleep and he got up unlocked the doors and went outside and was walking around.
