[WSBAPT] case law for fees relating to collection efforts?

[Eric Nelsen]

If judgment is entered awarding attorney fees on a statutory basis (say 11.96A.150), is there case law or other authority that allows the creditor to also collect fees incurred while pursuing collection, as in garnishment related fees, or execution on other property? Or are garnishment fees limited by RCW 6.27.090 to $300 in all circumstances? Is there a rule or comparable statute regarding collection fees for execution on property as well?

Sincerely,

Eric
