Spouse died in 2006. Are attorney fees for setting up the trust documents, retitling assets to trusts, meeting with the PR, POA and Trustee tax deductible for the survivor?

The estate gets the deduction.
Nope. Perhaps the estate can deduct them, however.
No, but the ARE deductible by the estate if the estate is large enough to have a tax liability.
Yes. Absolutely.

Estate planning expenses are tax deductible as Legal Fees Re: Preservation of Income as a Miscellaneous deduction, subject to the 2% limitation of AGI.
