nope – sorry. It is not tax deductable. However, if you won the case, then sue the childs father for the expenses.
No. Attorney fees for personal matters are not tax deductible.
No, sorry, that money isn’t tax deductible.
Sorry to say no is the answer its a personal matter and is not deductible.
NO! Personal legal fees do not provide any additional deduction.
While attorney fees for an adoption are applicable to the adoption credit, attorney fees in a custody agreement of your own child aren’t deductible.
Besides adoption, the only attorney fees that are deductible are those which generated you income.
