Johnny Depp’s lawyer Camille Vasquez has been flooded with offers from Hollywood and is at the center of a bidding war between law firms that want her on their team after her big victory in the actor’s trial.
The tough-as-nails attorney became a star in her own right in the drawn-out defamation trial — sparring with Amber Heard during intense and sometimes vicious cross-examination and becoming a darling among Depp fans.
Industry sources say doors are opening for Vasquez — it’s just a matter of which one she chooses.
A source says, “Talent agents are circling Camille because they recognize that she is the unicorn — a smart, savvy, poised attorney whose impactful performance during the trial propelled her to a rare level of visibility. And the fact that she is a woman of color is an added bonus.”
Since the trial wrapped on Wednesday, Vasquez has already received offers from several traditional TV networks and cable channels.
Despite leading the plaintiff’s case with attorney Ben Chew, Vasquez remains an associate at high-profile law firm Brown Rudnick, though celebrity lawyer Judd Burstein guessed “she’ll be a partner soon.”
