Interested to hear if it’s common or a client really has to do something outrageous to be fired?

Curious if its common or not and how it’s effected the case. If there’s a better place to post this let me know :)

Someone in my life is getting divorced from her husband. He fired his first lawyer and just got fired by his second (he’s a real peach /s). This was 5 days before a divorce judicial settlement conference in which they already scheduled a trial for. He now choosing to represent himself (has ZERO law experience and became a US citizen within the past decade after coming here 20 years ago so not familiar with US law)

My question- what typically happens when someone represent themselves? Is this a good or bad thing for the loved one in my life? Have you seen this before in your practice?
