I received a W2 &1099-MISC for a class action settlement. For the 1099-MISC do I checkYES for back wages even if reported in a W2? If so, do I use the wages on the W2?

No, do not check back wages because you have the W2 for that portion.

 Since personal attorney fees are a miscellaneous itemized deduction, they are limited by the two percent rule: They are deductible only if, and to the extent, they (along with all your other miscellaneous deductions, if any) exceed 2% of your adjusted gross income (AGI).
