Aaron Schlossberg in the viral video of his racist rant. A video of lawyer Aaron Schlossberg went viral in May 2018. It showed a racist rant in which he threatened to call US Immigration and Customs Enforcement on people speaking Spanish in a New York restaurant. Niche Music Group, one of the companies that dropped him as a client, is now suing him.

In May 2018, a video of Schlossberg went viral that showed him threatening to call US Immigration and Customs Enforcement in retaliation to people speaking Spanish at a restaurant in New York City. "Your clients and your staff are speaking Spanish to staff when they should be speaking English," he told the restaurant's manager.
Niche Music Group asked for at least $50,000 in damages in addition to any other costs associated with its lawsuit. Though Schlossberg has been condemned by local lawmakers, he remains in good standing with the New York State Bar Association and doesn't have any disciplinary record, according to The American Lawyer.
The record label argued in its lawsuit that Schlossberg "should have known that his multiple public racist outbursts would reflect poorly on himself, his clients and his profession" and that he therefore conducted malpractice and broke his contract with the company .
