OPINION

DRUKE, Chief Judge.

This appeal is taken from the trial court’s ruling allowing a law firm to recover unpaid attorney’s fees as part of a judgment against the defendants in a civil action brought under the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act (the Act), A.R.S. §§ 44-1521 to 44-1534. Because we agree that the trial court erred in construing the applicable statutes to include the law firm, Lewis and Roca, in the distribution as a victim of consumer fraud and because no other authority supports distribution to it of any portion of the funds seized pursuant to the Act, we reverse.
