Alec Bohm Sues His Parents for Millions of Dollars
The Phillies’ third baseman, Alec Bohm, has filed a lawsuit against his parents, accusing them of diverting large sums of money from his financial accounts and using some of that cash to cover their own expenses. The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in a Philadelphia court, arises after Bohm began reviewing his personal and financial affairs in recent months. According to the lawsuit, his parents refused to give him access to the accounts or provide him with the requested information. Bohm alleges that his parents tried to “freeze him” from four accounts, established as limited liability companies, and now believes they “converted a considerable amount” of his money from those accounts “for their own use”. The lawsuit indicates that, by the time Bohm requested the information, his parents had already transferred millions of dollars from their personal accounts to the accounts they controlled.Daniel and Lisa Bohm, Alec’s parents, denied having acted wrongly and, through their lawyer, expressed being “deeply saddened by the accusations” and that they will defend themselves vigorously. The parents’ lawyer, Robert Eckard, stated that Alec Bohm has always had full access to the accounts and that his parents pay his expenses with their personal credit cards. After the opening game of the 2026 season, Bohm refused to comment to reporters, stating: “I will not address any personal matters at this time.” Both sides claim that the first of the accounts was opened in 2019. According to Bohm’s lawsuit, his parents told him that a 10% stake was assigned, strictly for administrative purposes, and that Bohm was the “true” owner of all the assets of the LLCs. The accounts had various purposes, such as investing in securities or buying real estate. The Bohm lawsuit also alleges that his parents used money from the Alec Bohm Foundation to pay their expenses. Bohm requests in his lawsuit that his parents pay at least $3 million in damages, hand over control of the accounts, and hire an accountant to track every dollar they transferred from Bohm’s personal accounts to the accounts they controlled. Bohm, 29, has a $10.2 million contract with the Phillies for the 2026 baseball season. The lawsuit indicates that his parents live in a recreational vehicle and travel the country.Mr. and Mrs. Bohm love their son very much and have always acted in his best interests, both personally and professionally, and still do so to this day.
