I clerked for a judge this summer, and was just blown away by the number of cases -- civil and criminal -- in which people had resorted to self-representation. Fortunately, some states are designing programs to address these needs (e.g., <i>pro se</i> clerks and kiosks in courthouses). These services will no doubt be of great use for people who are too "wealthy" to qualify for legal services, but too poor to be able to afford a private attorney. Here's another site to add to the repertoire: <a href="http://www.selfhelpsupport.org/index.cfm" rel="nofollow">Self-Help Support</a> <a href="http://-lawmonkey-.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">LM</a> :) I’m so glad you’ve posted about the increasing pro se trend.
