Krg15,
Is this your question? - Are attorney fees for bankruptcy a deductable expense for tax purposes? Generally we can deduct attorney's fees for purposes of collecting or generating taxable income. This deduction is a Schedule A Miscellaneous Deduction subject to 2% of your AGI. Tax advice is a deductable expense. So if your attorney gave you tax advice and has that fee broken out on his bill, you can deduct that as a Miscellaneous Deduction on Schedule A. |
