Can I choose not to appoint an agent for my CP?

[freeskyline]

My CP case is employment-based.

On my DS-3032, can I choose not to appoint an agent (a lawyer)?

If so, the $335 fee bill will be sent to me rather than being sent to my company lawyer?

Thanks.

What are the benefits of appointing an agent (a lawyer) for the CP case though?

Can I complete my Packet 3 without the help from a lawyer?

Thanks.
