The problem is that, on the boards that were face nailed, the nail

heads are right at the surface of the wood.

So it's just a few boards. Normally these are at the edge of a room of
similar.
Ask him if he can punch the heads below the surface and fill the holes. Fill
ONE hole and check what you think of the colour match. Be prepared to pay
for a few different pots of filler and consider mixing to get the right
match.

Contacting a lawyer because a floor installer didn't set his nails?
Would it be a criminal case or a civil case?

Are you having the floor professionally sanded/finished? Call the
installer back to set the nails if you want--seems easier to me to
just buy a 2 dollar nail set at the hardware store and do it
yourself. Less frustrating. Then, your finisher should be able to
putty the holes. You tend to look at new work with a microscope.
Once your furniture is moved back in etc, are these nails even going
to be an issue?
