Legal fees are an example of direct cost because they can be directly attributed to a specific project, product, or service. Legal fees are incurred for the purpose of obtaining legal advice, drafting contracts, resolving disputes, or complying with regulations related to the core business activity. Legal fees are not general overhead expenses that are shared by multiple cost objects.
