Executor Named in O.J. Simpson's Will Says He'll 'Do Everything' to Ensure Goldman Family Gets 'Zero' from Estate

Simpson's will was filed in Clark County, Nevada, on April 12, two days after his death

O.J. Simpson's final will was filed in Clark County, Nevada, on April 12, two days after his death at 76.

Simpson's will, filed by Cassady Law Offices this week, was signed by the controversial figure on Jan. 24, per the Eight Judicial Court Portal's website.

In the full legal document, Simpson's longtime lawyer Malcolm LaVergne was named as the executor of his estate — with Simpson's son Justin Simpson being named as his successor.

Simpson requested his property be placed into The Orenthal Simpson Revocable Living Trust, and also signed that his last wishes for his remains would be attached to the will itself.

The will reads that it would be "administered as set forth herein without litigation or dispute of any kind” and that if a beneficiary, heir “or any other person” seeks to "set aside the administration of this Will, have this Will declared null, void or diminish, or to defeat any change any part of the provisions of this will,” that they'd “receive, free of trust, one dollar ($1.00) and no more in lieu of any claimed interest in this will or its assets.”

LaVergne, who the Las Vegas Review-Journal notes has represented Simpson since 2009, told the outlet that he does not want the family of Ron Goldman to acquire money from the estate.

“It’s my hope that the Goldmans get zero, nothing,” LaVergne said. “Them specifically. And I will do everything in my capacity as the executor or personal representative to try and ensure that they get nothing.”

LaVergne cited the events surrounding Simpson's controversial book If I Did It, in which the family secured the rights and later issued a revised edition featuring additional commentary.

An attorney for Goldman's father said Simpson — who was famously acquitted of murdering Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson — owed the family more than $100 million.

Decades after Simpson was ordered to pay the Goldman and Brown families $33.5 million in a 1997 wrongful death lawsuit, lawyer David Cook told PEOPLE the family has not seen the money, which he said has since grown due to interest.

"He died without penance,” Cook said of Simpson. “He did not want to give a dime, a nickel to Fred [Goldman], never, anything, never.”

Simpson's executor has now told the Review-Journal that there was never a court order forcing Simpson to pay the civil judgment and that he "can’t make a predication right now as to what the value of the estate is."

LaVergne added he was "flummoxed as to why he would name me as the personal representative or the executor."

“And it’s something I’m going to take very seriously," he said.

LaVergne also told the outlet that Simpson would be cremated in the coming days and that arrangements for a funeral service have yet to be finalized.

Simpson's family initially announced his death with a statement on X (formerly Twitter) this week, writing that he "succumbed to his battle with cancer."

"He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren," the statement added. "During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace."
