No. I-751 is a quite simple process as long as you research a bit and your case is "normal"

If you are still married after two years and lived any kind of normal existence (meaning u took a trip of some kind, paid a couple of bills, have a bank account together, etc) the i751 is as simple as putting all those papers together and sending it to uscis. Even if you got divorced but lived a normal existence with your partner it is as simple as it can be. The only time anyone who has ever heard of this site would use a lawyer would be with a complicated case or really bad luck that even their congressmen can't handle. My k-1 case was simple, but the government made it complicated by their bungling of my papers, yet a congressmen took care of that with a couple of phone calls... no lawyer was needed.

You absolutely need an attorney, if you are unable to fill out a simple form, take photocopies, and write a check.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

did everything ourselves - from k1 to roc. no need for an attorney... but then, again, our case was pretty simple and straightforward.

Not if your case is simple and straightforward and you have plenty of evidence to show your marriage is bona fide (joint bank accounts, joint mortgage loan, birth certificates of kids, etc.). Did you use a lawyer for K1 visa or Adjustment of Status? RoC is simpler than those so long as you have the evidence and there are no unusual or eyebrow-raising factors to your case. If you aren't scared to handle the forms, you can do it.
