Tony Buzbee told the BBC his team had received about 3,000 calls since he held a news conference calling for clients in October.
He has already issued 20 lawsuits from men and women seeking damages from the musician; and says that "realistically" the final total will be "about 100 to 150". Others will not make it to court because the time limit for filing claims has expired in certain states.
Mr Combs has denied all the charges against him, calling the accusations "sickening" and the result of people looking for a "quick payday".
His lawyers have characterised the multiple civil lawsuits, including the claims of 300 potential victims, as a part of a "reckless media circus".
