Send an email to the general council of the lawyer's firm explaining this. I gaurentee the problem will get fixed.
Edit: having sensitive information sent to a personal gmail account is also a problem in itself and is probably directly and unambiguously prohibited by the firm. You should really let them know

Tell them: no problem, but first you have to pay the fee and send them an invoice for some large but not completely crazy amount. :)

I considered that. They live too far away.
Some lawyer with an amazingly active life, and is learning to be a pilot, and other things I've forgotten has the same not too common name as me, and has [email protected] as his email address.
While at first cute, the number of times I've had to deal with other law firms who have sent me some incredibly sensitive document and then demanded I sign a document somehow proving I never read, nor will keep, the document they sent me by mistake is getting old.
Or my favorite, when a plane leasing company sent me some very large bill, and when I tried to explain the confusion, they claimed it was my responsibility to find the right person, or pay the bill.
People amaze me.
(And it's super petty of me, but this lawyer's family sends invites to family events to me now. The first few times I responded trying to fix the situation. Then I tried going radio silent to these, but they got more and more incessant on a response, so now I just respond that I'm not interested in attending.)
