Model Files Federal Lawsuit Against Trump Model Management for Wage Theft
Jamaican model Alexia Palmer files federal lawsuit against Trump Model Management seeking class-action status. Palmer’s H-1B visa application promised $75,000 per year, but she received only $3,880.75 over three years after agency fees. Court documents reveal systematic exploitation: models charged excessive fees, housed in overcrowded apartments, and prevented from working elsewhere due to ‘power of attorney’ contracts giving Trump’s agency total control.
