What does your judgement say? Your judgement should tell you what fees you can collect.

Most states dont allow recovery of lawyer's fees

You can ask though! Always ask. Court fees yes, other fees, maybe.

Ask for them all. Simply state, after asking for the damage amt for +court costs, +lawyers' fees, +other fees (since these wont totally be known yet leave them as an undetermined amount until trial is done).

You said "if I win"...if you did not ask for them win your initial filing, you can request to amend your complaint (maybe) to include these. If you cannot amend your complaint & you did not ask for these charges, judges will usually not allow you to tack them on later.

Quick question.

You're not an attorney, are you?
