Yes, it can be done without an attorney.

The application is pretty straightforward, online.

But, one thing to keep in mind is that you need to make sure that you do all of the necessary searches before you file.

That's not just the USPTO database, but search engines, phone listings, state trademark databases, etc.

This is just 1 of the things that will be done by an attorney, and if you don't know how, would be well worth the expense.

But the process itself can most certainly be done without an attorney.
