Thank you all for the incredible feedback on this difficult subject.
One more question: Am I doing something incorrectly or is it just that the legal fees are an itemized item? I entered the information as stated above but the solution keeps saying that my standard deduction for Married Filing Jointly (head of household) is greater. I am stuck with a 1099-MISC showing $10,000 for an Equal Opportunity case settlement yet my legal fees are pretty much the same amount. :(
