In California, the prevailing party in a case may be entitled to recover attorney fees under certain circumstances, as specified by statutes or the terms of a contract. However, if a case is dismissed without a decision on the merits, it may be more challenging to recover attorney fees unless there is a specific legal basis for such a claim.
That is my question...can a person who holds the power of attorney for another person charge fees in the state of Georgia? And if so, is there some type of fee structure?

Your attorney will establish the proof that your spouse lied on court declarations and it is up to the judge to decide if you can be reimbursed for attorney fees.
Often the losing party in a case will have to pay court costs -- i.e., various fees and expenses related to the litigation that the court system may charge (for example the cost of copying certain documents).The foregoing answer is accurate. However, most jurisdictions have specific rules as to what costs are recoverable. Be aware that attorney's fees are not a "recoverable cost" for the prevailing party unless a statute governing the subject-matter of the action, or the contract upon which the action was based so provides.

Bankruptcy attorneys will collect all money due to them prior to them filing the bankruptcy case in court because uncollected fees will be discharged. If you're talking about unpaid attorney's fees for other legal matters, they will be discharged, unless the attorney has had you sign a lien on real estate or other collateral which has been perfected as required by state law.
An attorney's lien is the right of an attorney to retain a client's papers until the attorney's fees have been paid.
