Should a property manager pay legal fees?

My property manager just lost an eviction. It's a long story but the short version is that they did not have a properly formatted Pay or Vacate notice. 

I now owe opposing counsel's legal fees of $1750. Should my property manager be responsible for this expense and their legal expense? After all, they lost they eviction. I have a standard Texas Association of Realtors manager agreement.
