Yes, you can consult with an attorney "by the hour" if you think the settlement is really what you want. If you are trying to save money then don't go until you are satisfied. Then the lawyer can look it over to make sure it says what you think it says.
The documents for now will say that you are "in pro persona" or "in pro per" meaning "representing yourself." If you consult with an attorney, that won't change--only if you "retain" him.
