Screwed myself over

So one of my clients came into my office to take me up on the deal.  He claimed that since it was half price for a wife and half price for a first cousin then I should represent his wife for free because she was also he first cousin.  I told him it did not work like that.  He said he would sue me to enforce the deal.  Since I was his lawyer I had to sue myself.  I won the case and had to represent his wife for free.

Yes, but what did you charge him for taking the case against yourself?
