Brock Pierce net worth: Mighty Ducks star's fortune explored as family friend allegedly steals his Puerto Rico hotel

Brock Pierce recently filed a lawsuit against a businessman and family friend named Joseph Lipsey III on charges of stealing the ownership of a hotel located in Puerto Rico. In an interview with the New York Post, Pierce said that he felt "betrayed" since Lipsey knew that the hotel was close to his heart.

Pierce pursued his career as an actor many years ago and later became an entrepreneur and philanthropist. He gained recognition for his performance as Gordon in The Mighty Ducks and D2: The Mighty Ducks, and his net worth is around $2 billion, as per CelebrityNetWorth.

People magazine states that Lipsey took over the hotel's ownership by saying that the former child actor failed to pay back a loan of $10 million that was borrowed from his company. Pierce explained that Lipsey was allowed to control the holding company looking over the resort, but the property was named for Pierce without a legal process that was supposed to take place for 30 days.

Brock Pierce is seeking damages worth $80 million and to alter the transfer. Pierce has an 80% stake in the resort and has also paid $18.3 million for the same in 2021.

The New York Post states that a trial is scheduled to be held this month. However, Lipsey has responded to the lawsuit by describing it as "baseless." While he has taken over the hotel, he is planning to launch it in a renovated form by 2025.
