Lisa Bloom Settles Allegations Over Misuse of COVID Relief Funds

The attorney and her firm agreed to pay $274,000 without admitting guilt, resolving claims of false information in PPP loan applications.

Lisa Bloom and her husband Braden Pollock will each pay $35,000, while The Bloom Firm will pay $204,000.
Federal prosecutors alleged that Bloom's firm misused Paycheck Protection Program funds for ineligible employees.
The settlement resolves claims brought under the False Claims Act, which allows private parties to sue on behalf of the government.
Bloom, who previously represented high-profile clients, denied the allegations but agreed to the settlement.
The case underscores the Justice Department's commitment to pursuing misuse of pandemic relief programs.
