While you have the right to represent yourself (pro se), it’s generally recommended to have a lawyer for:
- Criminal cases
- Complex civil litigation
- Cases involving significant money/property
- Matters with complicated legal procedures
- When opposing party has legal representation
Consider these key factors:
- Case complexity and stakes involved
- Your legal knowledge and comfort with procedures
- Cost of legal representation vs. potential outcome
- Time required to learn relevant law and procedures
For simple matters like small claims court or uncontested issues, self-representation may be feasible. For anything more complex, legal representation helps protect your rights and interests. Consider a free consultation with a lawyer to assess your specific situation.
