Vanderpump Couple Sued for $195K After Handyman Injury

and husband have been sued for more than $195,000 by a handyman who claims the 'hazardous' conditions at the celeb couple's Beverly Hills estate led him to injure his leg.

The 65-year-old Bravo beauty and her spouse, 80, were named in a legal complaint filed in  Superior Court on November 25, 2025, and reviewed by the Daily Mail.  

The handyman, Eric Nieto, said in his filing that he was hurt doing work on the $14 million estate owned by The  alum and her husband on November 25, 2023.

He is asking for $150,000 for pain and suffering; and for an additional $45,199.71 in medical costs related to the incident, according to a May 8 court filing. 

Nieto told the court he 'had been hired' by the reality star and her husband 'to perform handyman work at the property and was on the premises at [their] request and direction.'

The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Vanderpump for further comment on the story. 

According to his legal complaint, Nieto said he had been 'required to use an interior stairway leading down to the basement' of the home as part of 'his assigned work.'

Nieto said in the court filing that as he 'walked down the basement stairs while carrying out his assigned duties, his left foot became stuck on a stair tread.'
