In an exclusive interview Bloom tells RadarOnline.com, "I represent Michael Lohan.  Michael is the father of Lindsay Lohan.

“Michael has a problem millions of Americans have - what can a parent do when an adult child appears to have a serious alcohol or drug problem?  What can a parent do when that adult child’s life appears to be spiraling out of control?

“Michael loves his daughter with all his heart.  He has watched along with the rest of us over the past few months as Lindsay has been photographed partying and clubbing night after night, appearing as though she is under the influence of alcohol or substances.  He is heartbroken about her current condition.  With his own two eyes, just last week, he has seen her looking worse than ever.

“Michael is not going to stand idly by and watch his daughter become another Hollywood statistic.  He intends to do everything in his power to prevent Lindsay from becoming another Marilyn Monroe, Anna Nicole Smith, Michael Jackson, Heath Ledger, or Corey Haim.

“Michael has retained me as his attorney to pursue any and all appropriate legal action to save and protect his daughter.  The law affords a parent who believes his adult child is not in control of her health and welfare a number of legal options.  As of now, all options are open.

“It is Michael’s hope, and mine, that none of that will be necessary.  In the coming days we will seek to meet with Lindsay and her attorney to come up with an appropriate treatment plan that will allow her to get her life back on course.  If, however, that does not happen, Michael is prepared to pursue other legal action towards his one and only goal - to save and protect his daughter.

Lindsay’s attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, tells RadarOnline.com, “I am speaking with Michael’s lawyer, Lisa Bloom, about appropriate next steps and legal options on both sides.”



Fast forward 10 yrs; this will be Jon & Kate pointing the finger at each other while the 8 kids run wild on drugs, drinking, partying, etc. What's wrong with these parents, exploiting their own flesh & blood for fame/money.

I say give her dad a shot, mother evidently doesn't care enough to stop Lindsay' downward spiral.

There is nothing wrong with a parent wanting to help their child, there is no way to mis construe this, the people who do that are pure insane.

michael and dina really are like two peas in a pod. both are pathetic parents. they both make money off of her. the only thing going for michael is that maybe just maybe he will get some help for lindsay. dina sure isn't going to help her.

Michael may not ask for Lindsay's money, if there is any, but he WILL ask to make money off interviews and exclusives about his "I'm the concerned dad" routine. Michael and his fiancee have NO JOB.

If you think that Michael's actions have anything to do w/saving Lindsay, then you need to do a little searching online for past actions by Michael, all involving selling tapes, stories, etc. to the media.

Less than 3 months ago, Radar confirmed that Michael tried to sell them the recorded tapes he made of Lindsay-He was asking for over $100,000. Radar paid him for the interviews not the tapes-confirmed.

Sure, let her drink, take drugs and die in the gutter. I can see some of you cannot grasp the trouble this person is in. She's legally an adult at 23 and supposedly can make her own decisions her parents should just let her die. Riiiiiight.

I 100% agree that Linds needs help but her father has his own issues & has been estranged from his kids for years so he's not the person she will listen to right now. Mom needs to step up & get involved, dad's intentions are self-serving.
