Donald Trump's former lawyer Alina Habba Mildon has been let go from her controversial $50million contract job for 'failure to perform duties.'

Concord Partners let go of Habba Mildon in a letter dated November 4 after they said she drifted from the job after she started dating her now-husband, 25-year-old Turkish investor Turhan Mildon, The New York Times reported.

Habba Mildon will retain the nearly $14.5million she's already made from Concord, which is owned by the daughter of prominent Venezuelan banker Julio Herrera Velutini.

Around the time Habba signed on to the company, Velutini faced bribery charges over a misdemeanor campaign finance violation and received a pardon from Trump in January 2026.

An ally of Habba Mildon claims she's going to pursue legal action against the Herrera family. The company has yet to comment on her firing.

Trump fumed over Habba, 42, signing on for the well-paid role as general counsel for a company started by Isabela Herrera shortly after it was announced.

'I thought it was terrible,' he told Fox News at the Mar-A-Lago Halloween party. '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.'
