The lawyer for reclusive heiress Huguette Clark has hit back at relatives who want him ousted - saying he asked her to keep family members away from her.Wallace Bock made the claims in a legal response to a petition filed last week by three of Clark's kin asking for an independent guardian to oversee her vast fortune.
"Ms. Clark has always been a strong-willed individual with firm convictions about how her life should be led and who should be privy to her affairs," the 78-year-old attorney says in his filing.
Bock said the family's petition - which also asks for a restraining order barring him and Clark's accountant from contact with her - violates her wishes.
The legal document offers a glimpse into the shrouded life of the copper-fortune heiress who has lived in hospitals for 20 years, despite owning the biggest co-op on Fifth Avenue and sprawling estates in California and Connecticut.

Hearsay! Pure hearsay from the lawyer!
ReplyDeleteBring Ms. Clark to court to find out whether or not she is competent to make her own decisions.
Probably not, if she's "chosen" to "live" in hospital for 20+ years. There must be drugs involved.
And we are supposed to believe that Ms. Clark would not want her family around her. Bock is protecting her "wishes" my foot!
ReplyDeleteThe gloves are off now -- the lawyer will fight back and he'll wage a big war, at Ms. Clark's expense.
ReplyDeleteWatch out family, the first thing he'll do is start maligning you.
This case is becoming more and more interesting --- thanks for following it, NASGA.
ReplyDeleteHe can't stand it that he's been exposed, so he'll turn his venom on the family for exposing him.
