Yes you need an attorney as you may be found in contempt.

I strongly recommend you hire an attorney on this kind of issue because there needs to be a very detailed and reasonable explanation for failure to pay court ordered support.

Whether or not you need an attorney is a personal decision and I cannot tell you that you should, although if you are facing a contempt action for failure to pay spousal support, you may well wish to have an attorney, as you could be sent to jail for failure to comply with a court order.
