Lisa Cloud has been embroiled in legal battles over her son’s estate following his tragic accidental overdose in 2023. The late ‘Euphoria’ star’s mother, Lisa, is standing firm against a substantial financial claim made by Jonathan Kim, who had served as Angus Cloud’s assistant.

Liza Esquibias, an Editorial Intern at PEOPLE, reported on Lisa’s ongoing fight for justice in her son’s estate, which has been a topic of contention since Angus Cloud’s untimely passing at the age of 25. Lisa is challenging allegations put forth by Jonathan Kim, who asserted that he was owed a staggering $310,000 for work and commissions during his time as the assistant to the ‘Euphoria’ actor.
According to court documents reviewed by PEOPLE, Lisa Cloud petitioned for the final distribution of her son’s estate, highlighting discrepancies in Kim’s claims. Lisa contended that Kim, along with his attorney Brian Geremia, lacked substantial evidence to support the demanded sum. She went on to accuse them of presenting false evidence to justify Kim’s claim for $195,000 in commissions based on a verbal agreement.
Despite Kim’s initial claim being dismissed in February 2024, he proceeded to pursue legal action by filing a civil suit later that year. Lisa revealed that the estate’s current value stands at $50,000, significantly lower than its previous worth, which had been erroneously reported as millions of dollars in online sources.
Lisa Cloud denounced the exploitation of her family’s inheritance through what she perceived as baseless lawsuits, asserting that Kim was never formally employed by her son and failed to meet the necessary legal requirements to substantiate his claims. She emphasised that the statute of limitations for any verbal agreements had lapsed before Kim’s probate claim was lodged in early 2024, rendering it invalid.
In addition to disputing Kim’s financial demands, Lisa accused his legal team of exerting undue influence on him to pursue unwarranted legal action against the estate. She alleged that the attorneys had manipulated Kim into escalating the claims, even resorting to threats and intimidation tactics to advance their agenda. Lisa called for a thorough investigation into the alleged misconduct by Kim’s lawyers and urged the court to sanction them for their actions, citing California’s elder laws on financial exploitation.
The article sheds light on the complexities surrounding Angus Cloud’s estate and the challenges faced by his family in safeguarding his legacy amidst legal battles. Lisa Cloud’s unwavering resolve in seeking justice for her late son serves as a testament to her commitment to upholding his memory and preserving his estate.
