Question are Legal fees tax deductible

Hi,

i was told legal fees are tax deductible for seeking child support but not to the person paying.

can anyone clarify this for me.

i have spent 30k on legal fees to get child support so far and would really like to hear that i can deduct them from my earnings.

if it's true, and i don't make enough money to use the full deduction amount, can i carry it over for future years, if so, how many years?
