Attorney Provides Insights about Widow of San Diego Padres Owner and Her Allegations of Foul Play

Marc M. Stern, a partner in Greenberg Glusker’s Private Client Services Group, provided insights to WealthManagement.com on the ongoing family legal battle over control of the San Diego Padres.

An excerpt follows:

While without additional facts, it’s difficult to tell which side will prevail, said Marc M. Stern, a partner in the Private Client Services Group at Greenberg Glusker in Los Angeles, who opines that, based on what he’s seen, “both sides should want to reach a prompt settlement, each for their own reasons.” He cites analogous cases with other teams—such as the Baltimore Orioles’ family lawsuit in 2022 that was followed relatively quickly by a sale of the team in March 2024, as examples that “demonstrate that a prompt resolution can be mutually beneficial to all parties involved.”
