Deductions & credits
Legal fees are generally not deductible on a personal 1040 return.
There are three significant exceptions
To produce or collect taxable income.
To determine, contest, pay, or claim a refund of any tax.
To receive tax advice and tax planning
Based on the above, your legal fees would unfortunately not be deductible.
