Deductions & credits
If you are entering legal fees in the miscellaneous itemized deduction section, they do in fact go "nowhere." That type of deduction was suspended for 2018-2025 by the 2017 tax reform law. That program section still exists because some states allow the deduction. Ordinary legal fees are not tax deductible.
Legal fees for unlawful discrimination cases are still deductible, but not as miscellaneous itemized deductions. You deduct them elsewhere in the program as described by the other answers.
