District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
[December 6, 2017]
Marc D. Johnson of Larson Johnson, P.L., Tampa, and Stanford R. Solomon of The Solomon Law Group, P.A., Tampa, for appellant.
Thomas A. Valdez of Quintairos, Prieto, Wood & Boyer, P.A., Tampa, and Robin N. Knanal of Quintairos, Prieto, Wood & Boyer, P.A., Orlando, for appellees.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Appellant Natalie Fernandes offered each of the Appellees a proposal to settle her wrongful death action. The settlement proposals were rejected by Appellees. At trial, Fernandes was the prevailing party. Her subsequent motion for attorney's fees and costs was denied as a result of the trial court finding the settlement' proposals to be unacceptably ambiguous;
We affirm all aspects of the final judgment as it relates to Fernandes' motion for attorney's fees. However, as recognized by both parties, we must remand this case to the trial court with instructions • that ⅛ address Fernandes' motion for costs pursuant to section 57.041(1), Florida Statutes (2014) ("The party recovering judgment shall recover all his or her legal costs and charges which shall be included in -the judgment . ").
Affirmed in part, Reversed and Remanded in part.
Levine, Forst and Kuntz, JJ., concur.
