[quote=Anonymous]I hired lawyers, but after awhile, I was so comfortable with the system I felt like I should have had a law degree. I know the saying along the lines of people doing this being utter fools, but clearly it has happened before. Most people can not afford $100k in legal fees, which are paid by retainer, filling a jukebox as you go. And t is a person’s legal right to have the option to self represent. So. Do you know anyone that has done it? How did it turn out? I know one person, she would “consult” with attorneys and represent herself in court, this was for a highly contested divorce. The ex-husband was an attorney. She couldn’t find or afford anyone to fight for her so she literally dragged herself through everything herself. It ended with things in her favor, and eventually her and the ex could be in the same room with their 3 kids. Any other anecdotal stories? [/quote]
