1
Alina Haba had a very good year.
2
Donald Trump's former personal lawyer, whose signature professional achievement is a million -dollar sanctions order for filing a lawsuit that no reasonable lawyer would have filed,
3
landed a contract guaranteeing her more than $50 million over four years.
4
Her new employer is a Florida company called Concord Partners.
5
It has no public profile, and nobody seems to know what it does.
6
It was created just days before she signed on by a 27 -year -old daughter of a Venezuelan billionaire banker,
7
a banker who pled guilty to campaign finance violations and really, really wanted a pardon.
8
Two months later, Donald Trump gave that banker a full and unconditional pardon, and when she signed that $50 million deal,
9
Habba was still calling herself an acting U .S attorney for the District of New Jersey,
10
despite a federal judge saying she was nothing of the kind.
11
All of which means that Alina Habba, or Alina Habba Milden, as she's now known, is never leaving the news cycle,
12
which is great news for me personally, because I have been writing about Habba for so many years,
13
and I really thought it was over for us when she married a billionaire and quit pretending to practice law.
14
But no, Alina Habba is back, baby.
15
She's in a public knife fight with a fellow denizen of MAGA World, and she is in this metastasizing cronyism scandal,
16
and I will be writing about this woman for years to come.
17
Hooray for me.
18
Back in 2020, Alina Habba was running a tiny law firm in New Jersey.
19
She did some family law, some commercial real estate.
20
She served as general counsel to a chain of parking garages owned by her husband, which is a perfectly respectable living.
21
But it's not the traditional resume for a lawyer who's going to represent the most famous defendant in America
22
and serve as chief prosecutor in New Jersey.
23
In fact, nobody would have ever heard of Habba if what happened in Jersey had just stayed in Jersey, but it didn't
24
because a 21 -year -old waitress was being sexually harassed by her manager at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster,
25
New Jersey, and Alina Habba saw the chance to launch herself into Trump's orbit.
26
According to a lawsuit filed in 2023, she sidled up to that server at the breakfast bar
27
and said she had heard about what was going on and could help.
28
The server did have a lawyer, but Habba love -bombed her and then convinced her to fire her counsel, after which Habba whipped up a settlement,
29
fobbing the server off with a paltry $15 ,000
30
and got her to sign a nondisclosure agreement that was facially unenforceable under New Jersey law.
31
It even had a clause saying
32
that the woman would have to pay $1 ,000 a day in penalties
33
if she ever talked about being harassed by her manager after which Habba ghosted the woman.
34
Now that is all kinds of wrongs,
35
starting with the fact that it's entirely unethical to approach a party who is represented by counsel and discuss a pending case.
36
The server successfully sued to void the agreement and asked the judge to refer Habba to New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics.
37
In March of 2024, the club paid the former employee $82 ,500, and a few months later,
38
Habba quietly entered into her own settlement with the woman.
39
But by then, Habba was Trump's personal lawyer, deeply ensconced in his world because Trump was
40
so impressed with Hava's ability to deal with sexual harassment cases that he hired her to handle a lawsuit brought by former
41
Apprentice contestant Summer Zervos, and then he tasked her with fending off defamation and sexual abuse allegations from E.
42
Jean Carroll, which was a four -year shit show, thanks in large part to Alina Hava's wacko lawyering,
43
like the time she tried to exclude testimony of another woman
44
Trump was accused of sexually assaulting because it doesn't count if it's on an airplane, or the time she coached
45
Trump during his deposition
46
when he mistook a picture of Carroll whom he had said was too unattractive to sexually assault for his second wife, Marla Maple. So, yes.
47
And do you recall when you first saw this photo?
48
At some point during the process, I saw it.
49
That's, I guess, her husband, John Johnson, who was an anchor for ABC.
50
Nice guy.
51
I thought, I mean, I don't know him, but I thought he was pretty good at what he did.
52
I don't even know who the woman, let's see.
53
I don't know who.
54
It's Marla.
55
You're saying Marla's in this photo?
56
That's Marla, yeah.
57
That's my wife.
58
Which woman are you pointing to?
59
Here.
60
The person you just pointed to was E .J.
61
Carroll.
62
Who is that?
63
Who is this?
64
And the person, the woman on the right, is your then wife?
65
I don't know.
66
This was the picture.
67
I assume that's John Johnson.
68
Is that Carol?
69
Because it's very blurry.
70
Were the times she tried to countersue Carroll for defamation because the jury only found
71
Trump liable for sexual abuse, not rape.
72
That got the trial judge to put out an order describing her client as a digital rapist twice.
73
Or the time she and her partner got a remedial civil procedure lesson in open court
74
when they tried to argue that the judge was bound by another trial judge's ruling in a different federal district court.
75
Or the time the judge had to explain to Haba
76
and her associate that only one lawyer at a time gets to cross -examine the witness.
77
Or the time she forgot to raise presidential immunity claims for three years
78
and then tried to brush it off because you can't litigate when you're a sitting president.
79
I told you, I have written about this woman.
80
a lot now
81
if you're a scandal plagues driver from new jersey
82
you're probably wondering how to harness the power of ai to
83
protect your reputation from mean journalists on the internet for better
84
or worse millions of people are using ai as a search engine
85
so you need to be asking yourself
86
when people talk about your business what are the ai saying about you luckily hrefs can answer just that
87
and they sponsored this part of the video hrefs powerful tool brand radar shows
88
you where your brand appears in ai answers how you compare with competitors and opportunities to improve your visibility.

93
like what's the best accounting software for a small business?
94
That works even if nobody's searching for your brand by name yet.

So click or scan now to find out whether your business or brand is part of the answer, or I will see you in court.
100
Because Trump just kept on defaming E.
101
Jean Carroll, there were two defamation trials.
102
After the first, the jury found him liable for sexual assault and awarded the plaintiff $5 million.
103
The second time around, after he'd proved that $5 million would NOT BE ENOUGH TO SHUT HIM UP, THE JURY AWARDED CAROL $83 MILLION.
104
I GUESS HAVA WAS PROUD OF THAT BANG -UP JOB SHE HAD DONE IN COURT
105
BECAUSE SHE JUST STOMPED OUT UNTO THE COURTHOUSE STEPS AND SCREAMED ABOUT THE RIDICULOUS JURY.
106
BEFORE I WALKED INTO COURT, THAT JUDGE DECIDED THAT EVERY SINGLE DEFENSE PRESIDENT TRUMP HAD, WE WERE NOT ALLOWED TO RAISE IN FRONT OF THE JURY.
107
IT IS IN WRITING AND I ENCOURAGE THE JOURNALIST, THE REAL JOURNALIST TO TAKE THE MINUTE TO LOOK AT HIS ORDERS.
108
A few weeks later, she argued that her client was so rich he shouldn't have to post bond during his appeal,
109
which is very much not how any of this works.
110
Like I said, a lot of bangers in the Elena Hoppe back catalog.
111
In September of 2021, she sued
112
The New York Times and Trump's niece
113
Mary Trump for $100 million over a Pulitzer -winning story about the Trump family's tax schemes.
114
A New York judge tossed that case and ordered
115
Trump to pay the Times nearly $400 ,000 in legal fees.
116
Two months later, Habba threatened to sue the Pulitzer Prize Board,
117
who were refusing to revoke the 2018 prizes awarded to The Times and The Washington Post for covering the Russia investigation.
118
But Habba's masterpiece was the 108 -page troll suit against Hillary Clinton, James Comey, and 29 of their closest friends,
119
alleging that they did the RICO to Trump with the Russia investigation.
120
The complaint was filed in Florida, where very few of the defendants lived, because Florida is a state in the United States,
121
which was an important one.
122
That case was so patently defective, Habba
123
and her client wound up sanctioned to the tune of a million dollars for making all those people hire lawyers
124
and show up in court in Florida.
125
But you gotta fake it till you make it, I guess.
126
If Habba is faking being smart, she apparently fooled Donald Trump because when he returned to the White House in 2025,
127
Habba came with him as counselor to the president.
128
Two months later, he made her the interim U .S attorney for New Jersey despite the fact
129
that she had zero prosecutorial experience.
130
Haba spent a lot of time in office threatening various
131
Democratic politicians in New Jersey.
132
She actually charged Newark Mayor Raz Baraka with trespassing at an ICE detention center.
133
Ten days later, she dropped that case and then charged
134
Representative LaMonica McIver with assaulting federal agents.
135
Haba also spent a lot of time parading around, kitted out like a member of a SWAT team.
136
But it's one thing to play dress up.
137
It is quite another to be a real U .S attorney.
138
Because the Constitution gives the Senate the right to advise and consent to the appointment of a federal officer,
139
including the chief prosecutor in every federal district.
140
And there was no way Habba was getting confirmed in the Senate thanks to the blue slip rule.
141
That is, if both home state senators refuse to turn in their blue slips for a judicial or U .S attorney nominee,
142
that nominee does not move forward.
143
And New Jersey's two
144
Democratic senators, Cory Booker and Andy Kim, were never gonna bless Habba's nomination.
145
Now, when there was a vacancy, the judges in a federal district can appoint someone who can stay indefinitely as U .S attorney without confirmation.
146
But they refused to appoint Habba, which former Attorney General Pam Bondi characterized as rogue judges threatening the president's core
147
Article II powers.
148
Habba then announced that she was staying on the job as acting U .S attorney.
149
But a federal judge said that was entirely illegal, and the Third Circuit agreed.
150
Finally, in December of 2025, Habba tapped out with this defiant tweet where she promised that you can take the girl out of New Jersey,
151
but you cannot take
152
New Jersey out of the girl, after which she promptly moved to Florida.
153
But Habba did not actually leave the Justice Department, or not immediately.
154
The day she resigned, Bondi announced that Habba would stay on as senior advisor, overseeing all the U .S attorneys in the country.
155
So she got kicked out of one U .S attorney's office and promoted to supervising the other 92, which is some impressive failing up.
156
And that is where she was sitting when the Venezuelan billionaire got his pardon.
157
But before we get to that...
158
We gotta talk about a guy called Rick Grinnell.
159
Rick Grinnell is a longtime
160
Trump loyalist who served as ambassador to Germany, where he caused one diplomatic incident after another during the first Trump administration.
161
Grinnell is so intensely toxic that
162
Trump actually used him as a battering ram to force through the confirmation of John Ratcliffe as director of national intelligence.
163
See, the Republican -controlled
164
Senate did not want to confirm Ratcliffe as top spy because Ratcliffe, who was then a congressman from Texas, had so egregiously fibbed about his resume.
165
But under the Federal Vacancies Reform Act,
166
the president can let someone who has been confirmed by the Senate temporarily occupy any vacant role that requires Senate confirmation.
167
So Trump parked Grinnell in the DNI spot, working on the assumption that
168
Senate leader Mitch McConnell would be
169
so horrified at the prospect of Grinnell running the nation's intelligence apparatus that he would tap out and confirm Ratcliffe, which is exactly what happened.
170
This time around, Ratcliffe is CIA director, where he's what passes for an adult in the room.
171
And Grinnell is back, too.
172
In January of 2025, Trump gave him the amorphous title of Envoy for Special Missions.
173
Grinnell promptly started trying to broker deals in Venezuela, much to Secretary of State Marco Rubio's annoyance.
174
So within a few weeks, Grinnell got shunted off to run the Kennedy Center,
175
where he did such an amazing job that the place wound up shut down and mired in vicious litigation.
176
Here, have a video.
177
Grinnell and Haba used to be friends.
178
In fact, she met her new husband, a Turkish investor named Torhan Mildan, at the Kennedy Center.
179
Mazel tov to the lovely couple, by the way.
180
Love brought you together to this moment to unite your destinies.
181
But while most of MAGA World was at Habba's wedding, Grinnell was conspicuously absent, which was exceptionally weird,
182
because Grinnell and Mildan used to be good buddies when Grinnell was doing whatever he was doing in Venezuela.
183
According to the New York Times, there's some dispute about Mildon's age.
184
Some outlets report he's 29.
185
Others say his documents show him as 25.
186
But however old he is, Torhan Mildon's first politically advantageous marriage in 2021 was to the daughter of a construction magnate close to Turkey's President Erdogan.
187
That launched his career.
188
And shortly after that, he got very friendly with the leadership of the Democratic Republic of Congo
189
and even got himself a Congolese diplomatic passport.
190
Then he moved on to Venezuela, where President Nicolás Maduro's money man, Alex Saab, handed him a contract to run the state -owned cement plants,
191
as well as a shrimp production and export business, which had recently been seized from a supporter of the opposition political party.
192
Saab is a controversial figure who was indicted for money laundering in his NATO Colombia,
193
extradited to the U .S in 2021 for money laundering charges here, and then got repatriated to Venezuela in 2023 in a prisoner swap.
194
And remember when I said that Grinnell was messing around in Venezuela last year?
195
Well, Grinnell was buddies with Mildon, and they both supported the normalization of the U .S government's relationship with President Nicolas Maduro.
196
But then Grinnell got turfed out to the Kennedy Center, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio got his preferred policy,
197
which was to kidnap Maduro and also Saab and bring them to the U .S to stand trial.
198
That was very bad news for Mildon, because when Maduro fell, he lost his patron.
199
And the new Venezuelan government under President Delce Rodriguez moved to yank Mildon's contracts for those expropriated businesses.
200
But then Mildon allied himself with someone who had a lot of clout in American politics.
201
Like he told
202
Forbes, in my grandfather's time, know -how was very important.
203
Now, know -who is important.
204
And suddenly, he had a new girlfriend with a direct line to Donald Trump.
205
According to the Times, the Venezuelan government noticed and paused the revocation of Mildon's business contracts.
206
What a lucky break.
207
Then on October 8, the New York Times started asking Mildon questions about his business in Venezuela.
208
And the very next day, Habba stormed into the Oval Office in Washington and accused
209
Rick Grenell of making millions of dollars in Kennedy Center donations disappear.
210
According to Habba, Grenell told Mildon to wire $17 .6 million to a Texas defense company called TXAT in May of 2025.
211
Grenell used to work for TXAT, at least as a contractor, in 2024 for, but he says he has no ongoing affiliation with the company.
212
No one is talking about what the rest of the money was for,
213
but Habba says that $5 .6 million of it was supposed to go to the Kennedy Center and never got there,
214
and as proof, Mildon's lawyer sent the White House a text message in
215
which Grinnell supposedly said he wanted to make Mildon the American face down in V, meaning Venezuela.
216
He also sent documentation that the money was transferred, although they redacted the identity of the account, which wired the funds.
217
In fact, the originating account was associated with the Congolese government.
218
The Kennedy Center checked its books and found that Milden had pledged $270 ,000, not $6 million or $17 million,
219
and he hadn't paid the $270 ,000 either until the Times called this month to ask why.
220
Grinnell called this whole thing absurd and said, I've never asked for one cent to be sent somewhere else pretending it was for the Kennedy Center,
221
and I've never received any payment from him at all, and he says he.. never sent the American face down in V -text either.
222
Trump tasked White House counsel
223
Will Scharf with getting to the bottom of this.
224
Scharf was a guest at Habba's wedding last month and worked with her defending
225
Trump in the E.
226
Jean Carroll cases.
227
But take it in light of the story the Times was working on,
228
that Oval Office visit looks a lot like an ever to knife Grinnell before he could knife her,
229
which brings us at long last back to that $50 million deal Habba negotiated for herself.
230
And hey, what are the odds? because this one involves Venezuela, too.
231
Now if you have a job describing the country's descent into naked corruption that would make Richard Nixon blush,
232
you may sometimes seek the relaxation of an adult beverage.
233
Ask me how I know.
234
But we're all going into the holidays, so it's time to start planning for party season.
235
This is Pre -Alcohol from ZBiotics, and I'm absolutely thrilled they sponsored this part of the video because this is a game -changer.
236
I've been using it for years.
237
It's a must before girls' night out, especially if you've got stuff to do in the morning and who doesn't.
238
Z -Biotics pre -alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic.
239
It was engineered by PhD microbiologists to break down acetaldehyde, which is an unwanted byproduct of alcohol metabolism.
240
Z -Biotics says it's the buildup of acetaldehyde, not dehydration, that usually ruins your mornings after drinking.
241
Your body produces an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase to deal with this harmful byproduct, but there's only so much it has on hand.
242
And that is the magic of Z -Biotics pre -alcohol.
243
It gives your gut an ample supply of this natural enzyme, so long as you take it before you start drinking
244
i am very intentional about what i put in my body
245

246
that the mechanism of action at play here is all natural to how the body detoxifies itself from alcohol

251
Julio Herrera Velotini is a billionaire banker from a Venezuelan banking dynasty that dates back to the 14th century.
252
In 2022, he was indicted for bribery in Puerto Rico, along with the island's former governor, Wanda Vasquez, and an FBI agent named Marc Rossini.
253
The government spent nearly three years prosecuting that case, and the judge rejected every motion to dismiss.
254
But then, Then in August of 2024, Herrera hired Chris Kyes, another of Donald Trump's personal lawyers.
255
And later, Herrera even brought in Elon Musk's lawyer Alex Spiro, which kind of seems like overkill.
256
In May, the government informed
257
Judge Sylvia Carreño -Cole
258
that there had been a productive meeting in Washington, D .C with members of the prosecution team
259
and senior officials in the Justice Department with an eye toward resolving the matter short of trial.
260
And suddenly, the bribery charges disappeared.
261
Instead, each defendant would plead guilty to a single misdemeanor campaign finance violation.
262
Judge Carreño -Call was pissed.
263
She called the new charge a mere slap on the wrist compared to what the defendants had been facing.
264
But alas, the government's decision to shift gears at the eleventh hour is allowed
265
because ultimately the government decides how it will exercise its prosecutorial discretion.
266
So Herrera and Vasquez were allowed to plead to the misdemeanor and walk away more or less unscathed.
267
But according to the New York Times, Herrera still really wanted a pardon, and so he dispatched Kais to seek a grant of clemency from Trump.
268
Herrera's daughter Isabella, who is a U .S citizen, also made $3 .5 million in donations to the MAGA Inc.
269
Super PAC.
270
Previously, her only contribution had been $20 to Pete Buttigieg through Act Blue.
271
Then on October 22, 2025, Isabella Herrera set up a company in Florida called Concord Partners.
272
It is not entirely clear what Concord does, but days later, it hired Alina Habba as general counsel for $10 million a year for four years,
273
plus bonuses for a guaranteed total of more than $50 million,
274
which is pretty good pay for a lawyer who is not even licensed to practice law in the state of Florida.
275
I mean, for comparison, the highest paid in -house lawyers in the world are making
276
like $15 to $25 million a year at places like Google and Apple and Zoom.
277
But perhaps more to the point, when Habba signed that deal, she was still calling herself the acting U .S attorney for New Jersey.
278
Later in December, after she flounced off with that tweet about not taking the girl out in New Jersey, she became a special government employee.
279
A special government employee is someone the government brings in temporarily for no more than 130 days in a 365 -day stretch.
280
And because Congress wanted these outside experts to be able to serve without quitting their day jobs,
281
SGEs are allowed to keep non -government employment as long as the agency signs off
282
and they steer clear of any government matter that touches their private gig.
283
Habba started her side hustle at Concord on January 1, 2026.
284
Herrera was set to be sentenced at the end of that month, but in a remarkable stroke of luck,
285
Donald Trump pardoned him and his co -defendants on January 15th.
286
The Justice Department pinky swears that Habba didn't talk to anyone there about a pardon,
287
and the White House says she had nothing to do with it either.
288
On X, Habba sneered, Big scoop after leaving public service, I've gone back to doing what I have done for my entire career, being a lawyer.
289
Had she left public service at the time, though?
290
Hmm.
291
Habba calls it intentional, pathetic, and obvious that we're using her maiden name for clicks, because if there's one thing
292
Republicans cannot abide, it's deadnaming.
293
And Mrs. Milden says any insinuation that my employment, all of which has been vetted and disclosed to the DOJ,
294
had anything to do with securing a pardon is false and defamatory.
295
And if you can't take the word of a lawyer who sanctioned a million dollars for filing a frivolous lawsuit, who can you trust?
296
Okay, so brass tacks.
297
Is any of this legal?
298
Well, the pardons for Herrera and Vasquez are untouchable.
299
The Constitution gives the president the power to pardon offenses against the United States, full stop, and no court can undo that.
300
They are in the clear no matter what happens.
301
But selling a pardon is a different story.
302
Federal law makes it a crime to corruptly give or receive anything of value in exchange for an official act,
303
and a pardon is clearly an official act.
304
The problem is proving it because the Supreme Court has spent the last decade chipping away at federal corruption law,
305
and these days it's functionally impossible to hold a public official criminally liable for selling office unless he's on tape saying,
306
give me money and I will do this official act in exchange.
307
Thanks, Chief Justice Roberts.
308
The Justice Department says that Habba Milden didn't talk to anyone there about a pardon,
309
and she gives all the credit to Chris Kyes for making their mutual client's problem go away.
310
She was just hired as the world's most expensive part -time attorney, nothing to see here.
311
There are DOJ ethics rules, though, and here the timeline matters.
312
When Habba negotiated this deal in October of 2025, she was not a special government employee.
313
She was a full -time federal prosecutor in New York who
314
had nothing to do with the case pending in the District of Puerto Rico.
315
But in December, she became
316
Pam Bondi's senior advisor overseeing all the U .S attorney's offices in the country, including, presumably, the U .S attorney's office in Puerto Rico,
317
which was still prosecuting her new employer's father and even special government employees are bound by the criminal conflict of interest statutes,
318
which bar them from participating in any government matter that affects the financial interests of their outside employer.
319
Habba says all of this was vetted and disclosed to the DOJ, but I would note that the people in charge of that vetting,
320
Attorney General Todd Blanche and FBI Director Cash Patel and White House Counsel Will Scharf, are all her friends.
321
They were all guests at her wedding.
322
And of course, none of this is happening in a vacuum.
323
According to the Times, Trump's second term has spawned an entire pardon industry with wealthy criminals paying well -connected lawyers,
324
fixers, and lobbyists to get to the president, sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars or even a million dollars a pop.
325
Nikola founder Trevor Milton was sentenced to four years from defrauding investors.
326
He and his wife gave more than $1 .8 million to Trump's re -election effort in the fall of 2024,
327
and in March of 2025, he got a pardon.
328
Paul Walczak was sentenced to 18 months for pocketing millions in his employees' payroll taxes.
329
A few weeks after his mother went to a million -dollar had dinner for MAGA Inc at Mar -a -Lago, he got a pardon.
330
Binance founder Chen Ping Zhao pleaded guilty to failing to maintain an anti -money laundering program,
331
and then Binance got cozy with the Trump family's crypto venture, World Liberty Financial, and in October of 2025, Zhao got a pardon.
332
The only person who has faced any real blowback for taking cash for access is Kimberly Guilfoyle,
333
who was asked to resign as ambassador to Greece after the Wall Street Journal published her text demanding
334
that a Trump donor named Eric Dieters put $100 ,000 to her American Express bill.
335
Guilfoyle is represented by Jesse Beenel, whose firm handled
336
Trump's appeal of the sanctions levied against Haba in the Clinton -Rico case
337
because there are exactly five lawyers in Trump land and they divide the work up between them.
338
And now Haba's off the market since she'll have her hands full doing whatever it is she's doing for the Herrera family.
339
It's meteoric rise from a small -time attorney from New Jersey who sidled up to a waitress
340
and got her to take a $15 ,000 settlement and sign an illegal hush money agreement.
341
Since then, Habba's been sanctioned for a frivolous lawsuit, lectured on the rules of evidence in open court,
342
and kicked out of a U .S attorney's office by a unanimous
343
Third Circuit, and she's never been richer or closer to power.
344
So congratulations, Alina.
345
And congratulations to me, because it sure sounds like we will be talking about Alina Habba for years to come.
346
Now, all this highlights why it's so important to get a great lawyer when you're dealing with your own case.
347
Now, after I started this channel, every week I'd get hundreds of comments and emails from viewers who are dealing with legal problems.
348
And they'd ask, can you help me find a lawyer?
349
How do I know if this attorney is any good?
350
And there's a massive gap in our justice system.
351
It's that people don't know how to find the right lawyer for their specific situation.
352
They're scared, they're overwhelmed, and they end up doing nothing or hiring the first attorney who calls them back.
353
And that really bothered me.
354
So I started to wonder, what if there was a different way?
355
What if we could build a law firm that actually lived up to the values that I talk about on this channel?
356
Transparency, accessibility, and putting clients first instead of chasing billable hours.
357
A firm where you don't need to pay anything up front, and your lawyers only get paid if you do, to maximize your opportunity for justice.
358
So a few years ago, I decided to fix that problem.
359
I decided to start my own personal injury law firm.
360
And honestly, it wasn't an easy choice.
361
But I realized I was in this unique position.
362
I had this platform, this community, and the experience.
363
Not to get rich, trust me, there are easier ways to make money than starting a law practice.
364
But we did it because access to justice shouldn't be a luxury.
365
Because finding the right legal representation shouldn't feel like playing Russian roulette with your future.
366
And when you work with my firm, you're not just getting a lawyer.
367
You're getting a team that understands that behind every case is a real person with real stakes.
368
If we can't represent you or you're in a state where we don't practice,
369
we'll take the time to try to match you with an attorney in my personal network of lawyers,
370
a national network of some of the best lawyers in the country who actually specialize in what you're going through, located right where you are,
371
not just whoever happens to be available.
372
So if you're dealing with a personal injury, a car crash, a data breach, sexual harassment, a social security or workers' comp issue,
373
give us a call at the number on screen or click on the link below.
374
Now, I can't represent everyone that watches this channel.
375
I wish I could, but what I can do is make sure that when you need legal help,
376
you have somewhere to turn to that you can trust.
377
So whether it's me handling your case or the incredible attorneys we've partnered with,
378
you'll get the same principles of honesty and education that we bring to every video.
379
And if you're dealing with a legal issue and you're not sure where to start, check out the link in the description.
380
Let's have a conversation about how we can help you find not just a lawyer, but the right lawyer for your situation.
381
Because at the end of the day, that's what this is all about, making sure that when life gets complicated,
382
you don't have to face it alone.
383
Which is why when you need a lawyer, you don't just need a legal team, you need the Eagle team.

نطق يحتاج إلى انتباه
يستخدم المتحدث 57 من الصيغ المختصرة، مثل you're, don't, can't. انطقها بصيغتها القصيرة كما تسمعها.
- أصوات “th”: threaten /ˈθɹɛt.n̩/, ethics /ˈɛθ.ɪks/, wealthy /ˈwɛl.θi/

أصوات يجدها متحدثو العربية صعبة:
- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: pardon /ˈpɑːdn̩/, prosecutor /ˈpɹɑ.səˌkjuːˌtəɹ/, corruption /kəˈɹʌpʃən/, pretend /pɹəˈtɛnd/, employer /ɪmˈplɔɪə/

كيف تتدرب بهذا الفيديو
- استمع إلى الفيديو كاملًا مرة واحدة دون أن تتكلم، ودوّن الكلمات التي لا تعرفها.
- ابدأ بسرعة 0.75×، وردّد جملة جملة، ثم عُد إلى السرعة العادية عندما يصبح الأمر سهلًا.
- سجّل صوتك وقارنه بالأصل، مع الانتباه إلى كلمات مثل pardon, hire, counsel.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
