If a lawyer defended you in a previous case, this does not mean that he cannot defend the other party in another case.
However, there is the following limitation: the lawyer does not have the right to accept a mandate if the client's interests objectively conflict with the interests of another client with whom the lawyer is bound by a legal aid contract.
The answer is informational and does not replace a full legal consultation. For a detailed analysis of your situation, contact a lawyer directly.
