DACA recipient Married to US Citizen.

Recent marriage to Citizen

I’m hoping to get a bit of insight...I’m not as educated in immigration as I should be.

1. I’m a DACA recipient, and have been since the inception of the program.
   
2. I’m 36, came to the US when I was 7, and have never left the country.
3. I finished HS here and started college, but I did not finish my AA or transfer.
4. I have a 9 year old child, who was born here.
   
5. I have paid taxes every year since turning 18, have never been in any kind of legal trouble, and have no criminal record.

I recently got married (just last week) my husband is a citizen, we want to work together to adjust my status to become a permanent resident and eventually get my citizenship.

Is it worth paying the money for an attorney to help?

Will I have to return to my home country or is there an option where I do not need to leave the country?

I’m honestly not even sure where to start. My apologies if I sound lost, but I 100% am very lost.
