legal costs – the money that helps pay for the lawyers and the court in a legal case, usually paid by the person or organization that has lost the case (Cambridge Business English Dictionary)
Court costs (also called law costs in English procedure) are the costs of handling a case, which, depending on legal rules, may or may not include the costs of the various parties in a lawsuit in addition to the costs of the court itself. In the United States, "court costs" (such as filing fees, copying and postage) are differentiated from attorney's fees, which are the hourly rates paid to attorneys for their work in a case.
