If they can't straight out deny you, they will try to make it hard and intimidate you. Obviously it depends also on your adjucator. Some are nice and some are total dicks, trump lovers.
Having a lawyer helps spychologically, it removes the burden of paper filing and stressing.
If you can afford it meaning you are well off financially I would recommend a lawyer.
I am one of those people who can file forms with eyes closed at this point. I filed my grandma's greencard app, and multitude of DACA renewals etc..
I just didn't want to take a chance and paid for peace of mind. Note that a lawyer won't do everything for you and you even then need to do some work, but not as much.
Also, Don't use a paralegal, USCIS makes it clear you need to hire a lawyer that is approved to do immigration work.
