Please read my blog post on going to court alone:

As you can see, I do not recommend it. A lawyer (for a relatively small investment) can many times save you money by working out a settlement, negotiating a payment plan, or - at a minimum - helping you avoid a judgment.
Please feel free to email me at [email protected]. I would be interested in who is suing you, and for how much. I'd be happy to help in any way I can. Best of luck.
