If my ex hacked my computer. legally what can I do?

My ex put a keylogger on my computer and also hacked into my email account and changed my password. When I finally changed my password I found their IP address under the recent activity bar. When I took my computer into Best Buy Geek squad they definitely found a keylogger on my computer. I reported the IP address but what legal action can I take? Also, can my ex use the information that he saw on my computer by using the keylogger be used against me?
