However, this does not mean that a person should represent himself in court. The law can be very complex and it is quite rule-laden. In such matters, it is essential to have an attorney who is trained and skilled in negotiation, the rule of law, and court room procedure (should the matter make it to the court room).Anyone can represent himself in court. However, it is usually wiser to retain an attorney. While attorneys can be costly, a lawsuit lost can be costlier.
