Please use the TurboTax FAQ below to enter the 1099MISC in TurboTax.  Enter the 1099-MISC exactly as printed and continue.  You will enter the legal fees later, under the Deductions and Credits tab.  Select Federal at the left side of the page if you are not already there, at the top you will see Deductions and Credit tab, under that tab in the Other Deductions & Credits section (scroll down to see this) is a sub-section for Legal Fees, you will enter the legal fees there.
