Hi, Roy Oppenheim, "From The Trenches." This may be an answer to a silly question, but I'm going to answer it anyway. And the question is, how can a lawyer help someone navigate the litigation process?

In my mind, if you're going into litigation on your own, which is called pro se, while it's an inexpensive and cheaper route, it's probably a fool's folly. And by doing so, it's kind of like trying to do brain surgery on yourself. This is not something that one should take lightly. And if you are going to be involved in litigation, whether you're the plaintiff, the one bringing the suit, or the defendant, the one being sued, you should have professional expertise by your side. By not doing so, you could be causing yourself a catastrophic loss that may require you ultimately to go bankrupt and have other impacts on your life that could be very serious.

So my recommendation is if you're involved in the litigation process, at the very least, get some good legal consultation and make sure that you're not doing this alone. Roy Oppenheim, "From The Trenches."
