Tips at Closings?


I just recently bought a new home. At the closing my lawyer advised us to tip the Title guy $250.00, so not knowing too much about the whole process, we did!
About a month later, the Title guy still had not cashed his check. After looooong talks & regrets, we decided to stop payment on the check.
In return, my lawyer contacted me & told me I NEED TO RESUBMIT A NEW CHECK in the amount of $250.00 & that we (& i quote) “Do Not Want To Mess w/ The Title Company”.
I want to know: Why? And isnt a tip, up to the TIPPER? Somebody please help us out. I dont think i i HAVE to give anything. -Lost.
