I was referring to civil, and not always, but usually.In what context, criminal and/or civil?
Very few laymen can navigate either system successfully without a lawyer. The whole system from prosecutors, defense and judges are all lined with ring knocking lawyers that golf together on the weekends and attend each others personal events and functions. Part of getting a good lawyer is not just they know the law, but wield the behind the scenes influence of their fraternal trade.
Judges hate laymen that self represent no matter how smart they may be. It is an affront to their profession.
More specifically, what I would consider small cases. Say $20k or less.
