Correct me if I'm wrong but it sounds like what he is asking you to do is give your design, that I'm assuming he has not paid you for, to another designer who will charge him $1500 to basically transfer your drawing to autocad and edit it as he sees fit. Then "you and he" will implement your design that he bought from someone else who got it from you for free. So he can save money.

Sounds to me like an absolute cluster**** in the making, with nobody getting anything good out of it but his "friend" who is selling him your plan for $1500. Raj's advice is probably good. If you choose not run however I would suggest you do at least this...

1. Get paid for your design. Offer to sell the lawyer your plan for whatever you think is fair compensation for the time you spent on it. Then he can give it to whoever he wants.

2. Get written agreements on specifically what responsibilities or aspects of the project are going to be handled by who and what you will be paid for your part and then stick to it.

By the way Terre I have news for you...you're not just a gardener anymore.
