Jeffrey Epstein was worth more than $500 million when he died. Lawyers for his alleged victims say they’ll fight for it

Photo: Scott Heins/Getty Images Last month, federal prosecutors said in a court filing that Jeffrey Epstein was worth at least $500 million and brought in more than $10 million in annual income. The accused child-sex trafficker, who was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell Saturday, also owned a $77 million Upper East Side mansion; a private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands; and homes in Palm Beach, Paris, and New Mexico.
Epstein’s accusers could also file civil suits. Lisa Bloom and Roberta Kaplan, lawyers representing several of the women who allege abuse by Epstein, have said that’s just what they intend to do. “Give his entire estate to his victims,” Bloom tweeted Sunday. “It is the only justice they can get. And they deserve it. And on behalf of the Epstein victims I represent, I intend to fight for it.”These lawyers won’t be content with only going after the assets that Epstein has claimed.
Epstein’s alleged victims may not be alone in their attempt to claim a piece of his fortune. As the Miami Herald reports, the firm Morse Genealogical Services, LLC, has launched epsteinheirs.com in an attempt to find the “unknown children of the late Jeffrey Epstein” who may have a claim against his estate.
