What is the name of your state? Florida

I was served with a order of protection from a neighbor claiming I had assualted her three times,when in fact I had never touch her and had a witness. I had to get a lawyer because we live within 500 feet and if she would of won I would have had to move. I won and it was thrown out , but I feel I had to pay 750.00 to have a lawyer stand for me when I had never did anything to begin with. I believe I should get my money due to her perjury on court papers. She now goes around telling every new neighbor to stay away from me and my kids that I had assualter her. We live in Military housing and they have not done anything but I am the third person she has done this too. They are now saying they are moving them so I need to figure out if I can got to small claims or what to get my money back.
Thank you for your time
