OPINION

MATHIAS, Judge.

Jill Scott ("Scott") brings this appeal challenging the Carroll Circuit Court's order awarding Jeremy Irmeger ("Irmeger") attorney's fees under the qualified settlement offer statute when Irmeger did not personally pay the attorney's fees. Concluding that a defendant may incur attorney's fees even though a third party pays such fees on the defendant's behalf, we affirm.
