Erika Girardi Named in New $2.1 Million Lawsuit for ‘Aiding and Abetting’ Husband Tom

Erika Girardi is facing another legal battle in the aftermath of her estranged husband Tom Girardi’s alleged embezzlement activities.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 50, and her company EJ Global, LLC were named in a $2.1 million complaint filed Thursday, which was obtained by PEOPLE, claiming she “aided and abetted” Tom, 82, in his law firm Girardi & Keese’s alleged financial wrongdoings.

“The complaint is another misguided effort to blame Erika for the conduct of others in which she had no part,” Erika’s attorney Evan C. Borges tells PEOPLE in a statement.

“Erika has no law degree and never worked at or managed her former husband’s law firm,” Borges adds. “Whatever Mr. Girardi or others at his law firm did or said to the plaintiffs in this case, Erika had no knowledge or role in any of it. The focus should be on Mr. Girardi, his law firm, and anyone else who enabled what he did. Piling on Erika may generate publicity, but it’s without any basis in reality.”

The lawsuit, filed on behalf of attorney Manuel H. Miller and Kathleen Bajgrowicz, mother of the late NFL star Chuck Osborne who died after repeated head trauma in 2012, claims Erika “knew about the scheme” by which Tom allegedly withheld money due to clients and co-counsel. It also alleges that she was aware that victims were “funding her notoriously lavish lifestyle” shown on RHOBH. – Source
