Hello, I sent a lien notice to my customer that he owes me $2200.00 now it is time due to file a mechanics lien. Can I add the attorney's fee to my total? Thank you, Husein Qaiesi

Generally, no. However, to the extent you are not paid after filing your lien and you must file a lien enforcement action, you may request your attorneys' fees from the Court, who may grant them under 770 ILCS 60/17(b).
