That depends on the laws of the state of probate. Some states allow attorneys fees as a reasonable fee for defending against the removal action. In a way, the fees were spent protecting the wishes of the decedent that you be the executrix. You might not be able to charge all of the fees to the estate, only a reasonable amount. So be sure not to overpay or the court might have you pay for any extravagant amounts.
