Jay-Z’s Attorney Accuses Tony Buzbee Of Coercing Clients To Make False Claims + Lawyer Responds: ‘This Is Ridiculous’

Jay-Z’s legal team is pushing back against attorney Tony Buzbee, accusing him of pressuring potential clients to make false claims in lawsuits.

According to a recent declaration filed by Jay-Z’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, a woman contacted Buzbee’s firm for representation over sex trafficking and abuse claims and reportedly felt pressured to connect her allegations to Sean “Diddy” Combs, despite clarifying her allegations had no ties to him.

The woman claims Buzbee’s firm urged her to file anonymously, discouraged her from pursuing criminal charges, and even coached her to include fabricated details about being held down and drugged in her story.

When she refused to comply, she says the firm dropped her case. According to Spiro, the woman contacted his firm because she felt Buzbee’s conduct “discredits those who are legitimate victims.”

However, Buzbee has dismissed the accusations, stating to TMZ:

“This is so ridiculous. If someone calls our intake and has a viable case that we believe has merit and we can pursue we will pursue it. We are currently pursuing hundreds of cases against individuals other than PDiddy. What we won’t do is pursue a case that we don’t believe has merit.”

& Adding:

“I can’t speak to what she told the intake folks to even tell you what this woman claimed if and when she called…we certainly don’t need to ‘pressure’ anyone to pursue a case.”
