Tony Buzbee Is Representing Over 150 of Diddy's Alleged Victims — What Is His Net Worth?

Tony Buzbee and Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, are in the middle of a very public feud that has nothing to do with music. As of December 2024, Buzbee is the lawyer representing over 150 of Sean "Diddy" Combs's alleged victims. According to his law firm's website, he is "known for representing victims in high-stakes cases, including the prominent lawsuits against various celebrities and corporations." This is where Jay-Z comes in.

Many of the lawsuits Buzbee filed have been thrown out because the alleged victims refused to be named. ABC News reported that in one case, the judge decided there was sufficient cause to allow the plaintiff to remain anonymous. Soon after, Carter was added to the complaint and was accused of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl, alongside Combs. The two got into it online, turning the public eye to Buzbee and his net worth. Here's what we know.

Buzbee's net worth is reportedly $50 million, which is quite the haul for a lawyer who specializes in personal injury cases. He is also the founder of The Buzbee Law Firm which has offices in Houston and Atlanta, Texas. Their record is impressive and they have managed to pull in $10 billion for their clients. They've settled cases involving tortious interference, class action suits, negligence, and breaches of contract to name a few.

Before he was a lawyer, Buzbee served as a Recon Marine officer, ultimately reaching the rank of Captain. Once he left the Marine Corps, Buzbee headed to law school and graduated summa cum laude from the University of Houston Law Center. After briefly working for a federal district judge in the Southern District of Texas, Galveston Division, Buzbee worked at a boutique law firm before starting his own.

He frequently takes high-profile cases with sizable payouts, such as the Astroworld tragedy that occurred in November 2021. Ten people died at a Travis Scott concert after they were crushed to death. Per NBC News, Buzbee represented more than 125 victims who filed a lawsuit seeking more than $750 million.

Buzbee's firm's client list reads like a who's who of the corporate and entertainment worlds. They have represented Jimmy Buffet, Deshaun Watson, and former governor Rick Perry. The Buzbee Law Firm has also gone to bat for the State of Louisiana, Shell, Hilton Worldwide Holdings, and Ford Motors, to name a few. At one point he was a property developer.

Buzbee will undoubtedly be quite busy with Combs's alleged victims as well as the kerfuffle with Carter. His Instagram is certainly interesting, with one post in particular getting attention in light of the Combs and Carter lawsuit. On Nov. 6, 2024, Buzbee posted a photo of his dog with a Trump 2024 t-shirt draped over him. One person the comments said, "You are defending Diddy’s victims and also celebrating the election of his friend."
