Legal Question in Personal Injury in Illinois

What type of attorney do I need

I co-signed a 75K loan for a relative using my home as collateral. The check was made out to his company with the verbal promise of repayment. He defaulted on the loan & I had to remortgage my home as not to lose it. Do I have any legal grounds to sue him for my money? If I do what type of attorney do I need?
