In the past I have considered pursuing litigation pro se because it is very difficult to find an attorney willing to take a public records case on contingency. The stereotype that anyone who represents themselves in court must be a soverign loon or think they're Will Hunting is one reason I did not do so. It is not ideal, but neither is not having access to the justice system due to not having a bunch of money to burn.

I represented myself pro se in a civil matter that really should have been in small claims but was in superior court because of the remedy being sought by the plaintiff.

It went fine, ended in settlement in my favor.
