Phillies Third Baseman Alec Bohm Sues His Parents, Accuses Them of Misusing His Money
Bohm alleges his parents misused millions through LLCs controlling his earnings, seeking $3 million, control of accounts, and a full accounting amid denied wrongdoing.
- On Wednesday, Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm filed a lawsuit accusing his parents, Daniel and Lisa Bohm, of misappropriating millions from his accounts and the Alec Bohm Foundation for personal use.
- According to the complaint, the dispute began in 2019 when the Bohms set up multiple limited liability companies, allegedly claiming they needed a 10% interest for administrative purposes before diverting funds for personal expenses.
- Bohm seeks at least $3 million and court-ordered control of the LLCs. Through attorney Robert Eckard, his parents denied all allegations, calling them "entirely without merit" and stating they "have always acted in their son's best interests."
- Despite the legal filing, Bohm played in Thursday's 5-3 opening-day victory against the Texas Rangers, hitting a three-run home run. After the game, he declined to address personal matters, stating, "I'm not going to address any personal matters right now."
- The lawsuit requests a certified public accountant to determine damages as Bohm approaches free agency next winter, raising broader concerns about third-party control of professional athlete earnings and financial oversight.
