A: I strongly advise you to seek the assistance of a qualified attorney in your local area. Navigating the complexities of litigation, especially as described in your situation, can be extremely challenging for individuals representing themselves (known as 'pro per' or 'pro se' litigants). An experienced lawyer will have the necessary expertise and knowledge of the legal system to effectively guide you through the process. They can provide valuable insights, represent your interests in court, and help you understand the nuances of the law relevant to your case. Legal matters often involve intricate procedures and specific rules that can be overwhelming for those without legal training. Therefore, having professional legal representation can make a significant difference in the management and outcome of your case.
