Legal fees are generally not deductible on a personal 1040 return.

There are three significant exceptions

To produce or collect income that must be included in your gross income,
To manage, conserve, or maintain property held for producing such income, or
To determine, contest, pay, or claim a refund of any tax.

Given the above your lawyer fee would unfortunately not be deductible
