     When I was in practice against someone who was self repping I always put a bit extra in the accompanying statement explaining the split and would sometimes ask the self repper to sign a letter to the court confirming that they had had legal advice in the background but weren't represented - only when that was true of course but lots of people did just get ad hoc advice from a lawyer without them going on record as acting.
