The Lawyer of the case

Johnny Depp’s case is represented by the Brown Rudnik firm and Camille Vasquez works for the firm. She fought the case and in news, all credit goes to her.

It is rumored that Camille and Johnny dating each other and they can be seen during her courtroom interaction hugging and holding hands with each other. When a news reporter asked about it to Vasquez she laughed.

Camille Vasquez is from California, USA and she did her study of law at the University of Southern California. During the trial of the case, she asked specifically about her pledge to donate the alimony of $7 million dollars that she received.

Case Result

The case result is that Johnny Depp won the case and court-ordered Amber Heard to pay more than $10 million to Depp. But her net worth is found to be $8 million dollars, so Amber is gonna be bankrupt. It is a harsh reality for Amber that she lost her case and she is not able to pay the required amount.
