Finding an abogado oficio

Hi,
I would like some advice.
I have a house in the province of Cadiz. I paid an English builder to do some work on it, he started the work and then disappeared with my money.
I have since tracked him down and taken out a denuncia on him, which was all legalised throught the court in my resident town of Alhaurin el Grande. However, because the house in question is in Cadiz area the case has been sent to the courts in Cadiz. I have waited for 6 months to hear what is going to happen now. I managed to contact the courts and have been told to get an abogado oficio as I cannot afford to pay for one.
Also I have been told now that if I want to claim my money back I need a demanda against him. Can anyone point me in the direction of a good lawyer in the Malaga area?
