Richard Williams Files $1 Million Lawsuit Against Ex-Wife Lakisha Amidst Allegations of Fraud and Property Dispute.

The complex and ongoing legal dispute between Richard Williams, the father of tennis stars Serena and Venus Williams, and his ex-wife, Lakisha Williams, continues to captivate public attention.

The saga began years ago but recently intensified after Richard filed a $1 million lawsuit, accusing Lakisha of fraudulent actions that he claims have financially harmed him and undermined his ownership of their former marital home.

Richard, now in his 80s and known worldwide as the coach and father behind Serena and Venus Williams’s tennis success, alleges that Lakisha used his name and faked his signature to remortgage their shared Palm Beach Gardens property.

This Florida home, a four-bedroom, five-bathroom residence spread over 4,160 square feet, is a significant asset, and Richard contends that Lakisha’s handling of it has led to a severe financial loss. According to his legal filings, Lakisha sold the house for just $10, a sum he considers symbolic of her disregard for the home’s true value.
