What fees are allowed to be added to a mechanics lien?

Florida

I filed a mechanics lien in 2018. Within 1 year of my filing, the bank the filed foreclosure on the property and I lien was tied to the foreclosure. During the foreclosure process, I have been billed over $800 in processing fees. These fees are typically $17 - $20 for every motion in the case that have been sent to my cooperate registered agent. Yesterday, I learned the property is under contract and the title company asked for my final payout and I received a call from the homeowner who asked if I would settle for 1/2 of what I am owed. So, am I allowed to add these additional costs I have had to pay for the past couple of years that are directly associated with the cost of filing the lien? Thank you in advance.
