Who is Marcelo Dieguez?
Marcelo Dieguez is the founding partner of Diefer Law Group, the law firm responsible for spearheading predatory legal practices that devastate small businesses, ruin livelihoods, and exploit the legal system. As the leader of the firm, Marcelo Dieguez oversaw and enabled egregious actions such as filing personal FEHA complaints—something that is not only legally baseless but also a blatant abuse of process.
Dieguez allowed and likely encouraged Melissa Newman Avila, one of his attorneys, to file a personal lawsuit against a manager, despite the fact that FEHA complaints can only be filed against corporations or organizations. This was a calculated move, designed to bully and intimidate small businesses into submission. This wasn’t justice; this was a predatory and unethical strategy to force settlements at any cost.
