Manhattan real estate mogul’s caretaker ‘jealously manipulated ailing billionaire before flying him to Russia where she spent THOUSANDS on lavish lifestyle and left him to rot,’ lawsuit claims

A real estate mogul’s concierge ‘jealously manipulated’ the ailing billionaire into traveling to Russia, where she left him to die a painful death so she could pocket $2 million in inheritance, a bombshell lawsuit claims .

The family of Allan H. Goldman is suing his assistant Natalia Vostrikova, claiming she siphoned off $8.2 million of his fortune for years.

Goldman died on January 15, 2022 in a hospital in St. Petersburg, after multiple organ failure and a years-long battle with Parkinson’s disease.

But his son Steven Gurney-Goldman, who filed the suit in Nassau County, claims he was driven to an early grave by his longtime employee, who allegedly isolated him from his family before taking him to Russia, where he died alone .

Vostrikova denies the allegations against her and insisted New York Post that she was Goldman’s “wife.”

But Goldman’s son alleged in the lawsuit that the $120,000-a-year caregiver refused to provide medication and proper care for her ward, resulting in bedsores so severe that it exposed the bone and saw the billionaire lose 50 pounds .

Goldman was the son of real estate developer Sol Goldman, who once included the Chrysler Building in his real estate portfolio.

At the time of his death, he was worth at least $1 billion, leading to a succession battle over his vast fortune.

But in the latest development, his son, in his capacity as executor of his father’s estate, has accused Vostrikova of isolating him from friends and family – something he says only intensified when she learned of a donation of two million dollars in the billionaire’s will.

“Defendant Vostrikova accelerated her efforts to systematically neglect and deliberately harm Mr. Goldman, with the aim of aggravating and exploiting his incapacity, so that she (a) wrongfully transferred significantly more money from Mr. Goldman’s financial accounts to could transfer herself, and (b) ultimately hasten his death so that she could more quickly inherit according to his estate plan,” the lawsuit reads.

By July 2021, Goldman’s Parkinson’s disease had left him largely incapacitated, at which point Vostrikova transferred him to Russia, allegedly under the guise of treatment, according to the documents.

But instead of taking him to the hospital, Vostrikova booked a room at a luxury five-star hotel and began subjecting Goldman to non-traditional clinics, “in an effort to further prevent Goldman from being treated for Parkinson’s disease.” the lawsuit claims.

The family claims his condition only worsened after Vostrikova failed to take care of his personal hygiene and caused bedsores that became infected through contact with feces and urine.

All the while, she was “enjoying an extravagant, lavish vacation in Moscow, spending tens of thousands of dollars on Mr. Goldman’s American Express … and even bragging to certain people about the quality of her life,” she said. the lawsuit states.

Goldman’s son claims family was not given updates or a chance to talk to their father while he was bedridden.

Before his visa was set to expire, Vostrikova eventually called a doctor who noted that the billionaire weighed just 138 pounds and was covered in multiple “excruciating” bedsores, the complaint said.

But instead of sending him to a hospital in Moscow, as the doctor had insisted, the defendant arranged for him to make a treacherous journey to a hospital 400 miles north of St. Petersburg, where he died alone a day after arriving, his family claims.

Autopsies conducted by medics in Russia and the U.S. showed that he had an untreated bacterial infection that left him with pneumonia and two liters of infected fluid in his chest cavity, causing his right lung to collapse, the documents said.

It was also noted that he had done so. “multiple infected and ulcerated decubitus ulcers on his heels, ankles, thighs, sacrum, shoulder blades and hand, several of which were allowed to develop so long that they extended all the way to Mr. Goldman’s bone, resulting in blood poisoning and sepsis and the loss of more than 25 percent body weight,” the lawsuit said.

His children said they only learned of his death through an email from a Russian lawyer they hired to investigate his situation and try to bring him home.

They allege that while he was still alive, Vostrikova diverted their father’s money for his own gain, even splurging on a $1.8 million, five-bedroom home in one of Long Island’s most exclusive neighborhoods.

However, she refuted the allegations in a statement to The Post.

“It’s a lot of lies,” said Vostrikova, who described herself as Goldman’s “wife.” She has accused the family of defamation in her own lawsuits.

Goldman’s ex-wife Susan confirmed that he and Vostrikova had been dating for 20 years and that she had taken him to Russia for stem cell treatment.

However, his daughter Stephanie Goldman hit back at the claims.

‘My father didn’t believe Natasha cared about him. “According to nurse logs, my father told a nurse that Natasha pretended to care about him, but pretending was better than nothing,” she said in legal documents.

“I do not believe he had the cognitive ability to make most decisions, including financial ones, much less the cognitive or physical ability to authorize and sign the checks he supposedly issued.”
