Alina Habba Mildon Reportedly Loses $50 Million Contract That Trump Condemned as ‘Outrageous’
Alina Habba Mildon has reportedly lost the $50 million contract that enraged her former client, President Donald Trump.
The New York Times reported on Tuesday that Habba Mildon was terminated last week by Concord Partners, a company owned by the family of Venezuelan businessman Julio Herrera Velutini. Habba Mildon reportedly received a massive contract from the company just weeks before Trump pardoned Herrera Velutini.

Habba Mildon was fired for a “failure to perform duties,” according to a person familiar with the situation and a November 4 letter addressed to Habba Mildon that was reviewed by The Times.
The source close to the situation told the outlet that Habba Mildon’s priorities with the company “shifted” after she began dating Turhan Mildon, to whom she is now married.
Trump’s former lawyer is still making out in the deal as she’ll reportedly keep an $8 million bonus as well as $6.5 million that was already paid to her. The overall contract would have seen her making $10 million every four years along with bonuses.
Herrera came to a plea deal in August 2025 after being accused of attempting to bribe the governor of Puerto Rico in 2022, pleading guilty to one misdemeanor campaign finance violation guilty. His family then reportedly began working on getting him a pardon through Habba Mildon and her ties to Trump. The president pardoned Herrera earlier this year after Habba Mildon was hired by the man’s family’s law firm, which was just registered in Florida shortly before her hiring.
Trump was enraged after hearing about the deal, calling it “obnoxious.”
“I thought it was terrible. I told her, I said, I don’t want her paid. We had somebody speak to the people that did it, and she used her relationship to do that. And it was far too much,” the president said. “You know, it’s one thing for a person to get paid legal fees or whatever — she’s a lawyer. I thought it was a totally obnoxious and outrageous and it’s not acceptable. Not acceptable, at all.”
Trump suggested at the time that his former lawyer should make a big donation to his presidential library. Habba Mildon responded to that when CBS News asked about the possibility by sending a text “haha” reply, which she then quickly deleted.
