No. not in my experience. If you were able to legally "represent" yourself you wouldn't be in need of a guardian. From the question I have to assume that you are not yet legally an adult. Depending upon your age though, you will be able give testimony and the judge or hearing officer, will listen, and give weight to, your comments and feelings.
Will represent self
A guardianship attorney petitions for hearing on the behalf of the person or persons seeking guardianship or conservatorship and are usually a requirement when wanted to set up a guardianship. These lawyers typically specialize in estate planning, wills, and elder law.
In the US, you are never required to hire a lawyer. You can always opt to represent yourself. If you feel comfortable with it, read up on the area of law and the procedures, and represent yourself. If you aren't comfortable doing legal research, you should probably hire someone.

Yes, as long as the father has not established his paternity legally. Once he has established his paternity in court he has parental rights and he must consent to any guardianship or the court will schedule a hearing whereby he can explain his objections.Yes, as long as the father has not established his paternity legally.

go to the court and have a hearing on it but the father of the child has to agree on it too. Other wise it can not happen.. i just went through that myself>>>
Yes, however frequently they ae told that the other parent is uninvolved or the whereabouts are unknown.
To obtain legal guardianship of a 17-year-old in Kansas, you must file a petition with the local probate court, demonstrating that guardianship is in the best interest of the minor. You'll need to provide evidence of the minor's situation and your qualifications to serve as a guardian. The court may require a hearing where evidence is presented, and the minor may have a say in the proceedings. If the court approves your petition, it will issue a guardianship order.
"Plaintiff's represent the person who initiated the law suit. You can represent yourself in a court proceeding but that will not make you a lawyer. When a corporation is involved in a lawsuit, meaning they have decided to take someone to court, they are the plaintiff. In a divorce hearing, the spouse that asked for the divorce and acquired the paper work is the Plaintiff."
VERY doubtful - you are not legally an adult. MAYBE in a traffic court hearing, but certainly not in any more serious type of offense.
