This lawyer I know is a family friend. He helped me incorporate my company and gave me the paper to send in myself to the company all lawyers use, cutting off the fee that he would normally charge his clients.
I paid the same fee that he would have paid if he had done it for me (as a normal client), but I would have had to pay the 'lawyer's fee', as well.
Does it make sense to give him a gift equal to the amount of money he saved me, or is that too much and something else will do? Also, I was thinking of giving him a $100-$200 bond, plus a nice fruitbasket/or chocolates. Is that too much?
P.S. I want to retain a good relationship for his future help (not that I'm expecting it for free again, but it just might be).
