What is the name of your state?Mississippi. I have a finance company and sue people often in justice court. The law allows me to charge a reasonable attorney fee. I pay an individual who is not a licensed attorney to write the court declarations and to appear in court on my behalf. I include these fees as attorney fees. I was audited by the state finance department and the auditor said if I were to charge attorney fees on suits I HAD to have an actual attorney that has a license to practice law or someone working under him to do my legal work. Is this true? Where does the law define the word 'attorney'?
