My and my sister received an out of court settlement for our mother’s wrongful death. It is my understanding that is not considered taxable.income However is the 1/3 of the money for the lawyers cut deductible.
No, it isn’t. Legal expenses are deductible only if they are incurred in gaining taxable income.
