You have a right to represent your-

self. However, it is greatly advised

that you have an attorney. When you

represent yourself, the court will

hold you to the same standards as a

practicing attorney.

No; you have a perfect right to represent yourself (pro se). Of course, things might get complicated for a lay person.
