The Phillies' Alec Bohm sues his parents, alleging they mismanaged his finances
Yikes! I'm going to guess no opening day tickets for Mom and Dad.
Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm has sued his parents, alleging the pair defrauded him of millions of dollars under the guise of managing his financial affairs.
Bohm says in the suit that his parents, Daniel and Lisa Bohm, used several limited liability companies to funnel money from his personal financial accounts, which they then “converted to their own use.” Filed Wednesday in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, the lawsuit seeks a judgment of at least $3 million, as well as an accounting of the funds in question, among other relief.
Bohm’s parents, through their attorney, denied wrongdoing.
In the suit, Bohm, 29, says that the situation dates back to 2019, when his parents set up two LLCs to hold the money and assets he earned as a professional baseball player. The Nebraska-born Bohm initially signed with the Phillies in 2018, and has a $10.2 million contract via arbitration with the team this year.
