Paris Jackson has faced criticism for disparaging those who manage her inheritance, following her accusations against her late father Michael’s attorneys for misusing her fortune.
Previously reported by Bored Panda, Paris has struggled with substance abuse in the past, but has made significant improvements in her life recently.
This personal transformation has led her to become more vocal, a change that is causing some unease for lawyers John Branca and John McClain.
- Paris Jackson has initiated a legal motion against the lawyers of Michael Jackson’s estate.
- The motion claims John Branca and John McClain have doled out excessive gratuities.
- The attorneys argue their actions have financially benefited Paris.
The attorneys have countered her claims, stating they have not followed traditional methods while managing Michael’s estate but asserting that their approach has yielded positive outcomes for the family.
Paris has formalized her allegations through court documents
In a recent filing, Paris described Branca and McClain as a “tight-knit” group profiting from her father’s estate.
She stated, “The prolonged delay puts the Court and beneficiaries at a disadvantage for proper oversight.” Through her lawyer, she expressed concern about undisclosed payments to the attorneys, emphasizing transparency.
Paris’s assertiveness comes amidst criticism of the lawyers’ management
Despite the backlash, Branca and McClain have been credited for restoring Michael Jackson’s estate from a $500 million debt.
They have reported that Paris has received approximately $65 million as a result of their efforts to revitalize the estate.
Paris is perceived as benefiting from the estate’s profits
Sources indicate that Paris has been actively real estate investing in California, purchasing and flipping properties relatively quickly.
Insiders suggest her actions indicate financial stability, refuting any claims of financial struggle.
Critics argue Paris’s claims are about more than money
An insider commented on the irony of a privileged individual like Paris seeking control over a powerful estate built on hard work.
They noted, “While they have increased Michael Jackson’s legacy, her claims appear less about finances and more about authority.”
Paris also criticized a new biopic on her father’s life
Recently, she vented her discontent regarding an upcoming biopic intended to generate revenue for her father’s estate, distancing herself from the film’s production.
Paris described the portrayal of her father as inaccurate, demanding to be excluded from any publicity related to the film.
