Times where someone takes AFoolForAClient by representing themselves in court in FanWorks.
----
[[AC:''Series/{{Arrowverse}}'']]
* ''Fanfic/ArrowRebirth'': {{Discussed}} and {{Averted}}. As a precautionary measure, Oliver arranges for Jean Loring to represent Laurel in case she ever gets arrested as an accomplice after his SecretIdentity is outed. Laurel accepts the help, noting that representing yourself is ''never'' a good idea.

[[AC:''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'']]
* ''Fanfic/CrumblingDown'': After getting away with her various deceptions for so long, Lila is so convinced of her own infallibility that she attempts to represent herself in court. Between her inability to [[CompulsiveLiar stop telling lies]] and refusal to [[NeverMyFault take responsibility for her own actions]], she only succeeds in digging herself deeper and landing a [[LaserGuidedKarma thoroughly deserved]] lengthy sentence.

[[AC:''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'']]
* ''Fanfic/ARabbitAmongWolves'' has a {{Downplayed}} example: Jaune chooses to represent himself at his trial not because he thinks he can do a better job, but because he knows he's dealing with a KangarooCourt. Placing himself in charge of his defense means he can call his own witnesses.
