Who Is Johnny Depp Lawyer
The popular and extraordinary litigable battle that took place between former husband and wife Johnny Depp and Amber Heard became the social media event of the year 2022. And with it came a very much unexpected spotlight on a group that is unlikely unused to the spotlight; the legal team of Depp.
And after a year, the trail is being put back on display via the new three-part documentary of channel 4, Depp Vs Heard. The series as you should know which is from director Emma Cooper pledges to examine and portray what the blockbuster events of last spring show about “violence, gender and also the memeification of justice in the era of post-truth.”
And for those persons who need a refresher, Mr. Depp who was 58 at the time, had sued his ex-wife Ms. Heard, who was then 35, for $50m over an op-ed that she had written for The Washington Post back in December 2018 in which she discussed domestic abuse as well as experiencing “the full force of our culture’s wrath for women who speak out”.
Although she had not named the actor Mr. Depp to whom she was married between 2015 and 2017, his lawyers at the time argued that readers of the newspaper were very much likely to assume that he was the person responsible for the ordeal she alluded to and then claimed that the article had caused their client to lose out on lucrative movie roles as a result of the whole thing.
Ms. Heard then countersued her estranged former husband whom she reportedly met when they starred together as lovers in The Rum Diary in 2011 – for $100m, thus arguing that it was she who has been defamed by one of his attorneys, who had then argued that her claims to victimhood were a “hoax”.
Now away from the whole case at the time, this post is all about the ferocious lawyers of Mr. Depp. And with no further ado, let’s get things started.
Camille Vasquez
Camille, unquestionably the star of the whole show, is a 37 years old attorney of Brown Rudnick a very prestigious firm that is based in Irvine California.
She is a graduate of the University of Southern California and southwestern law school. She started out in commercial litigation just before specializing in plaintiff-side defamation suits and contract suits, with her company citing her experience in “reputation management and crisis communication issues.”
Those persons that were observing the case online and rooting for Mr. Depp enjoyed the rapid-fire objections of Ms. Vasquez to one particular summary that was made by Ms. Heard’s attorney Elaine Bredehoft that were so fast they left the latter spluttering in exasperation: “I’m trying… I’m trying.”
This as you should know was one of many moments that went viral, thus inspiring several fan accounts devoted to her as well as endless memes that were likening Ms Vasquez to the Marvel heroes Thor and She-Hulk and even rumours at the time that she was dating her client, which is a suggestion that she politely laughed off when asked about it directly on the courthouse steps by a TMZ reporter.
Well, so many wonderful things to share about her, but in general her services have since then been acquired by NBC News as a legal analyst.
Benjamin Chew
The other most prominent face that was noticeably on Mr. Depp’s side was DC-based Ben Chew, who is a graduate of Princeton and the University Of Virginia School Of Law who was also noted for his passion for candy, snacking on gummy bears as well as M&Ms all through proceedings to keep his energy levels up.
And just like Ms. Vasquez, Mr. Chew soon found his statements going viral and fan accounts, therefore, springing up on TikTok that were devoted to him, with viewers enjoying the “bromance” that they imagined him to be having with his famous client, as well as his gamely posing for pictures with two alpacas, Teddy and Truffle, outside of the courthouse alongside his colleague(s).
Other key and important members making up Mr. Depp’s legal team were Rebecca MacDowell Lecaroz, Stephanie Calnan, Andrew Crawford, Yarelyn Mena, Jessica Meyers, and lastly Sam Moniz.
