Allegations of Fraud and Misappropriation
Alec Bohm, third baseman for the Philadelphia Phillies, has filed a lawsuit against his parents, Daniel and Lisa Bohm, alleging that they defrauded him of millions of dollars while managing his financial affairs. The lawsuit, submitted to the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, seeks at least $3 million in damages and an accounting of the funds in question. Bohm claims that his parents established several limited liability companies (LLCs) to divert money from his personal accounts for their own use, despite assurances that he would retain ownership of the assets.
The lawsuit outlines that the alleged misconduct began in 2019 when Daniel and Lisa Bohm set up two LLCs to manage the financial assets Bohm earned as a professional baseball player. They purportedly told him they needed a 10% stake in these LLCs to act as authorized representatives, while he would still own all assets. However, Bohm asserts that his parents limited the funds in his personal accounts and transferred the excess to the LLCs, which they controlled.
Details of the Financial Dispute
Bohm's lawsuit indicates that his parents misrepresented their role and intentions, claiming they acted on his behalf without charge. The complaint states that they later established two additional LLCs in 2024, purportedly to facilitate a real estate purchase, without adequately explaining the necessity of this arrangement. Bohm alleges that they misrepresented property-related liabilities to misappropriate funds.
The situation escalated in January 2026 when Bohm requested detailed information about his financial holdings. His parents allegedly engaged legal counsel and provided minimal information, later indicating they would bill him for their services at a rate of $50 per hour. Bohm is now seeking a court order to regain control of the LLCs and to have a certified public accountant assess the damages incurred.
Responses from Bohm's Parents
Daniel and Lisa Bohm have denied any wrongdoing through their attorney, Robert Eckard. They expressed sadness over the allegations, asserting that they have always acted in their son's best interests. Eckard stated, “Mr. and Mrs. Bohm love their son very much and have always acted in his best interests, both personally and professionally.”
Impact on Bohm's Career
As the lawsuit unfolds, Bohm continues to focus on his baseball career. During the Phillies' opening day game against the Texas Rangers, he hit a three-run home run, contributing to a 5-3 victory. When asked about the lawsuit after the game, Bohm declined to comment, stating, “I’m not going to address any personal matters right now.”
What's Next
The lawsuit is still in its early stages, with Bohm's legal team conducting a thorough examination of the financial activities in question. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for Bohm's financial future and his relationship with his parents.
