Vigilantism *is* highly frowed upon by the law here.
You can use "reasonable force" to protect yourself, your family, and your property. What "reasonable force" turns out to be is usually decided in court and depends how good your lawyer is.

Why would you need a lawyer if all you did was defend yourself?

All Media in every country sensationalizes things and hand picks what to show people about their own country as well as other countries.
I have not seen, nor have I heard anything such as this. And yes, I do beleive that if someone attacks you, that fighting back is self-defense. Most civilized Western nations have such laws.
Why would you need a lawyer if all you did was defend yourself?
Because the extent of force you use in your defence has to be in proportion to the threat of or the level of violence you were confronted with.
So, for example, if you punched someone to the ground in self-defence then that might be okay. But, if you followed that up by giving the individual a good kicking while they were on the ground that might be deemed a level of force that was out of proportion to the threat.
