Yes, that possibility exists. It is less likely when you both have attorneys, but it is possible that the Judge would find that in your situation the incomes and/or resources are so different between you that it is fair to require you to pay some or all of his fees. Additionally, if there is any allegation of failing to follow an order or misconduct in the case, that can also cause the Judge to order you to pay some or all of his attorney fees.
