Thank you for the comment Hackitoff. Unfortunately, the legal proceedings took 4 years to conclude. The EAJA award came in year 5. Over that time the fees were never deducted as I couldn't itemize. So, would I be able to take the legal fee deduction even though I wouldn't be doing it in the year I paid the legal fees?
Unfortunately, my attorney has no idea. I don't think they win too many of these cases.
