Allegations of Misappropriation
Alec Bohm, the 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. The lawsuit, submitted to the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, claims that his parents utilized several limited liability companies (LLCs) to divert funds from Bohm's personal financial accounts for their own benefit. Bohm is seeking at least $3 million in damages, along with an accounting of the funds involved.
According to the lawsuit, Bohm's parents established two LLCs in 2019 to manage his finances as a professional athlete. They purportedly informed him that they required a 10% interest to act as authorized representatives. The suit alleges that they accessed Bohm's personal accounts and transferred funds into these LLCs under the guise of "traditional investment purposes," but instead misappropriated the money for personal use.
Financial Management and Property Acquisition
The lawsuit further claims that Bohm's parents set up two additional LLCs when he expressed interest in purchasing real estate in late 2024. One of these entities was intended to hold the title to a property Bohm was interested in, while the other was meant to own that entity. Bohm alleges that his parents did not adequately explain the necessity of this arrangement, leading him to believe he could not hold the title in his own name.
Once the property was acquired, Bohm's parents allegedly communicated about various property-related liabilities, claiming they had been settled. However, Bohm now suspects that they exaggerated these liabilities to misappropriate funds. When he inquired about his finances in January, his parents reportedly opted to seek legal counsel and indicated they would charge him $50 per hour for their financial management services.
Responses from Bohm's Parents
In response to the allegations, the Bohm parents have denied any wrongdoing. Their attorney, Robert Eckard, stated that Daniel and Lisa Bohm "love their son very much" and have always acted in his best interests. They expressed sadness over the allegations and described the lawsuit as a "sensational false narrative" that they believe lacks merit.
Conclusion and Impact
Alec Bohm, who was drafted third overall by the Phillies in 2018 and has earned over $12 million in salary during his career, is currently set to make $10.2 million this season. The outcome of this lawsuit could have significant implications for his personal finances and family relationships as the case unfolds.
