Legal Troubles Mount for Diddy’s Attorney Mark Geragos Amid Federal Case
Mark Geragos, longtime attorney for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, faces multiple legal malpractice suits while defending the music mogul against federal charges.
Sean “Diddy” Combs’ attorney, Mark Geragos, is embroiled in a storm of legal difficulties as he navigates a federal case for his client while facing at least three legal malpractice lawsuits. This predicament arises at a critical moment in the Diddy case, which has recently entered its second week following jury selection in the Southern District of New York (SDNY).
Geragos, known for his notorious reputation and relationship with Diddy, has received damaging criticism in the ongoing case, including a reprimand from the presiding judge for making inappropriate comments about the prosecution. Furthermore, both Geragos and his daughter, Teny Geragos, have been accused of breaching court procedures by leaking information to TMZ, allegedly to sway public opinion regarding Diddy's defense.
Adding to his legal woes, Geragos faces allegations from several victims of Diddy, suggesting he was involved in efforts to intimidate witnesses. This practice, often characterized by the media as having connections to organized crime, has raised eyebrows among prosecutors and observers alike. The mounting pressure on Geragos has prompted some to advocate for the suspension of his law license while these malpractice claims are addressed.
Currently, three malpractice cases have been officially filed against Mark Geragos, including:
- The Estate of Anisa Farhadi v. Geragos (Case # BC690815) with a trial date set for December 2025.
- Franklin v. Geragos (Case # 20STCV37797) scheduled for trial on July 7, 2025.
- Teresa Hershey Et Al v. Geragos (Case # 19STCV17855), slated for trial on September 8, 2025.
As a practicing attorney in California, Geragos holds bar license #108325. However, his past encounters with the State Bar of California have raised concerns about his professional conduct. To date, investigators anticipate a fourth legal malpractice case against him to be filed in federal court soon.
In light of these developments, readers are encouraged to report any information regarding potential ethical or criminal violations involving Mark Geragos to law enforcement agencies, including the State Bar of California. Confidential tips can also be submitted via email or through communication platforms.
