Answer

The cost of the evaluation is deductible as a medical expense.

Please explain why you needed to pay attorney fees to the school district. Maybe we can find a way to deduct that, too.

After the nuero phycoligist evaluation I had to hire an educational attorney because my son was not getting the help he needed. He was diagnosed with some pretty severe learning disabilities. He is now out placed but it cost me $8,000 in attorney fees. Bieng a one income family it really hurt my finances this year.
