In March, 2023, Kamillah Hanks, along with her live-in paramour Kevin Barry Love and her political campaign, were sued for over $86,000 in unpaid and unreported legal fees by Richard Luthmann, a former campaign lawyer. Love vehemently denied the allegations, calling them an “outrageous vulgar lie,” and "missing from his lawsuit is not a single piece of evidence other then the rantings of a mentally ill man." Luthmann produced evidence, including filed court documents in 2017 allowing Hanks' daughter, Nadia, to graduate from Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School.
