Whether a party entrusts a lawyer in a lawsuit needs to be decided by itself. The law does not stipulate that a lawyer must be entrusted. Whether in civil, administrative or criminal proceedings, entrusting a lawyer is the litigation right of the parties. Since it is a right, the parties may or may not exercise it, so as long as the parties feel that they can handle the whole lawsuit, of course, they don't need a lawyer to go to court. If the parties do not understand the law and relevant procedures, it is recommended to entrust a lawyer to represent them or consult a lawyer in detail.
Relevant regulations:
Article 58 of the Civil Procedure Law stipulates that the parties and their legal representatives may entrust one or two persons as agents ad litem.
The following persons may be entrusted as agents ad litem:
(1) Lawyers and grassroots legal service workers;
(2) Close relatives or staff members of the parties concerned;
(three) citizens recommended by the community, units and relevant social groups where the parties are located.
