Inside the Untold Battle: Ron Goldman’s Family’s Relentless Fight for Justice and $117 Million, 31 Years After Nicole Brown Simpson’s Murder
So, O.J. Simpson’s saga isn’t just about courtroom drama and shocking headlines anymore—it’s spilling over into the grave with a whopping $117 million creditor’s claim filed by Fred Goldman, the father of Ron Goldman, nearly three months after O.J.’s death. Crazy, right? You’d think things would settle down, but nope. There’s a marital clash brewing between Goldman’s relentless pursuit of what he claims is owed, and Malcolm LaVergne, O.J.’s stalwart attorney and estate executor, who’s gearing up for an all-out legal brawl to shield those riches left behind for O.J.’s kids. It begs the question—can big-money grudges survive beyond the hereafter, or are we just witnessing one last scorcher in the never-ending gold rush for justice and dollars? Buckle up, because this fight is far from over. LEARN MORE.

He explained: “We need to get a lawyer or several lawyers who deal with this, very smart people to determine who it is or who it would be, and (start) taking depositions from people and/or finding out who they are and what information we need. It’s a big deal.”
Three months after O.J.’s death, Fred Goldman filed a $117million creditor’s claim against his estate in July 2024.
The filing stated: “I affirm that the amount of the claim, $117,041,675.27 through July 25, 2024, with interest accruing thereafter at the daily rate of $26,402.3630, or the alternative claim amount as explained above, $73,148,948.71 through July 25, 2024, with interest accruing at the daily rate thereafter of $16,638.73, is justly due. I also affirm that all payments have been credited and there are no offsets known to the affiant.”
O.J. left his estate to his children, and his longtime attorney and executor Malcolm LaVergne made it clear he was going to put up a fight to protect his late client’s riches.
