If I paid a lawyer to file a claim with my disability insurance but the disability claim was awarded without having to go to court, can I deduct the lawyer's fees?

I hired the lawyer to make sure my claim was approved. Fees were pay as you go and not on contingency. The claim was approve and I have been receiving benefits. The claim was approved in 2015 but is being reviewed at the 2 year mark and I am having legal fees associated with that. Can these fees be listed in misc.?
