Trump Lawyer Alina Habba Quietly Settles With Ex-Bedminster Waitress Involved In Hush Money Deal
Alina Habba, the Donald Trump defense attorney who has drawn the ire of judges and even her own teammates, has settled with a former Trump National Golf Club Bedminster employee who accused her of betraying her oath as a lawyer all to get into the former presidents inner circle.
Habba signed the monetary settlement on Aug. 27, and the terms remain confidential. The deal is the latest chapter in the legal problems Habba, Trumps favorite TV bulldog, is facing.
Habbas professional ethics were called into question last year when Alice Bianco, a former waitress at Bedminster, sued the golf club for having allegedly defrauded her into accepting $15,000 on the condition that she keep quiet about sexual harassment allegations. Habba brokered that deal, the lawsuit alleges. Nondisclosure agreements relating to a claim of discrimination, retaliation, or harassment are against public policy and unenforceable in New Jersey, per statute.
In March, the club agreed to void the hush money deal in a settlement agreement, let her keep the cash and pay her lawyer, Nancy Erika Smith, $82,500 in fees. But the club cut Habba out of that settlement, leaving her wide open to getting personally sued for her role in the ordeal.

Feeling that shed been taken advantage of, Bianco eventually hired her current attorney, Smith. Combing through text messages and legal paperwork, they pieced together a timeline that they believe shows how Habba silenced Bianco to cozy up to Trump.

(54 posts)When I see idiots like this moron trying to attack Vice President Harris with childish methods of attack like mispronouncing her name on purpose and stretching out Kamala's name just shows how jealous she is of other women who are extremely intelligent,strong,powerful,successful,humane,popular,adored,respected,loved and admired. All of the things this so called lawyer is not or will ever be. All she is, is a small minded,evil,delusional Trump sycophant. A third rate orange golf cart chaser who looses case after case. Looser client and his looser lawyer.No woman anywhere in the world should ever support this violator of women's rights. This is another MAGA with a super poor attitude.TRE45ON.
