Hi,
   Try using Boolean Query. You can effectively use boolean operators  using
it.
make seperate queries for each field.
Boolean query is meant for having a series of queries with boolean operators
defined.

For eg.
  lets say you have 3 diff queries A, B, C and you want a final query which
behaves as  A && (B || C)
BooleanQuery query = new BooleanQuery();
BooleanQuery temp = new BooleanQuery();
temp.add(B, Occur.SHOULD); //Occur.SHOULD is equvalent to OR operator
temp.add(C, Occur.SHOULD);
query.add(A, Occur.MUST); //Occur.MUST is equivalent to an AND operator
query.add(temp, Occur.Must);

Now "query" = A && (B || C)


Check out the documentation of Boolean Query.
