Lawyer fee for setting up patent

is AIA allowable? or is this allowable legal expenses?

Didn't find your answer?

Sorry, I've not gone anywhere near this before and today my brain is Full!
How do I treat £4,500 legal fees for setting up a patent? This is for a self-employed client. I've read that it may be an intangeable asset, but what's the tax treatment?
I hate getting suprises from clients in the last week of January!!
