A California man is suing a physic who he claims falsely promised to save his marriage by removing a curse put on him by his ex-girlfriend.

Mauro Restrepo said in a lawsuit filed in Torrance Superior Court and seen by NBC Los Angeles that he paid psychic Sophia Adams to remove the said curse.

He accuses Adams, her business, Psychic Love Specialist by Sophia, and her family, of negligence, civil conspiracy, and intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress.

According to court documents, also seen by the BBC, Restrepo found Adams' business in Google.

He said during their session, Adams said he had bad luck put on him "by a witch hired by his ex-girlfriend" that could ruin his marriage and make his family "unhappy and in danger," court documents said.

Restrepo said Adams requested $5,100 to remove the curse, and he paid a $1,000 down payment, the lawsuit said.

But Adams "did not in any way help" his marriage," Restrepo said in court documents.

He's now seeking $25,000 in damages.
