Mark Geragos Faces New Fraud Allegations From Jewelry Designer Pamela Love
Attorney Mark Geragos is embroiled in another legal battle, this time over allegations of fraud and conspiracy tied to a shell company.
Geragos has been implicated in various legal controversies in the past, facing a raft of allegations that paint a troubling picture of his legal practices. The latest lawsuit accuses him of enabling a fraudulent foreclosure scheme to protect insider interests while harming Pamela Love financially.
The intricacies of the case were detailed in a lawsuit filed in the Supreme Court of New York. Love asserts that despite being awarded a final partial judgment last December, she has yet to receive payment. The suit alleges that Geragos played a critical role in orchestrating a foreclosure that masked financial misconduct intended to defraud creditors.
“Sham to Defraud Creditors”
According to court documents, the foreclosure on Alex and Ani’s assets was described as a mere facade, maintaining business operations under the guise of legality. The lawsuit claims that employees were manipulated, being laid off and rehired on the same day, suggesting a coordinated effort to deceive creditors.
Geragos's troubling past adds context to this latest bout of accusations. He previously faced scrutiny in connection with a Nike extortion scandal alongside Michael Avenatti. In another incident, he and his partner were found to have violated ethical rules while practicing law in Arizona, leading to disciplinary measures.
Further complicating matters, Mark Geragos's daughter, Teny, has recently attracted attention due to internal conflicts within Sean 'Diddy' Combs's legal team, particularly after the departure of fellow attorney Anthony Ricco. Speculations abound regarding Geragos's potential influence over these tensions, heightening public scrutiny on his actions.
This latest lawsuit adds to the growing concerns surrounding Geragos’s legal practices, igniting discussions about the implications of his alleged misconduct not only for his career but also for the individuals and entities impacted by his alleged conspiracies.
