Sean "Diddy" Combs' legal team consists of several prominent attorneys defending him in his sex trafficking and racketeering trial. The defense is primarily led by Marc Agnifilo, a founding partner of Agnifilo Intrater with over 30 years of experience and more than 200 cases tried, and Teny Geragos, also a founding partner at the same firm, known for her expertise in sexual misconduct cases and daughter of famed lawyer Mark Geragos
. Other key members of Diddy's legal team include:
- Brian Steel, an Atlanta-based criminal defense lawyer who recently joined the team and previously represented rapper Young Thug in a long-running racketeering trial
- Alexandra Shapiro, who began her career clerking for Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
- Xavier R. Donaldson, a New York City-based attorney who joined just days before the trial began; he has a background as a prosecutor and nearly three decades of legal experience
- Nicole Westmoreland from Westmoreland Law LLC, who joined the team shortly before the trial started
Formerly, Anthony Ricco was part of the defense team but withdrew from representing Diddy early in the case for undisclosed reasons related to attorney-client privilege
. In summary, Diddy's legal defense is a high-profile, multi-attorney team led by Marc Agnifilo and Teny Geragos, with significant contributions from Brian Steel, Alexandra Shapiro, Xavier Donaldson, and Nicole Westmoreland
