But on the other hand when you are talking about a case worth hundreds of thousands of dollars a family member might be offended if he was not given a chance to handle the case.

One of my good friends was in the real estate business.  There were hard feelings when his brother sold his half-million dollar home using another agent.

A person should not feel obligated to do business exclusively with family.It is the clients' choice on whom to select.
The brother selling the home may have thought another agent may get a better price than his brother, or had other concerns.
