According to NY Post, not only Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are constantly mentioned in the press, Depp's two lawyers, Camille Vasquez and Ben Chew, are equally famous after the lawsuit.
Recently, the two became guests on the program Today, Good Morning America and gave interviews about issues surrounding the outcome of the trial that shocked the US.
On June 1, seven jury members of Fairfax, Virginia (USA) issued the final verdict in the defamation lawsuit with Johnny Depp winning. The actor was awarded 10.35 million USD in compensation from Amber Heard.
In the program, when asked by the MC about Heard's difficulties and fears in the face of more than 10 million USD in compensation, Mr. Ben Chew shared: "This lawsuit was never about money for Johnny Depp. The real purpose of the lawsuit was to restore his reputation and he did it. It was a complete victory for Johnny.
According to the lawyer, if the " Aquaman" beauty does not have enough finances to complete the compensation of 10.35 million USD, Depp may not receive this amount.
Ben Chew also dismissed the possibility that the actress had enough grounds to appeal, because Depp's legal team was confident that there were no errors in the litigation process.
Lawyer Camille Vasquez also believes that Johnny Depp won completely deservedly: The key to winning is to focus on events, evidence and opportunities for Johnny to tell the truth for the first time.
I think the jury must see, the world must see and hear from Ms. Heard. We believe that evidence itself says it all. The jury made a decision based on that data.
We encourage any victim to move forward, because domestic violence does not discriminate between women and women.
The lawyer added: Johnny also has dark corners. But he has always been straightforward about alcohol and drug abuse, as well as some of the bad messages he has written before. I think that is completely opposite to Ms. Heard, who is not responsible for anything.
According to the female lawyer, the media did not influence the final verdict of the 7 jury members. Johnny Depp has regained the support and trust of fans and convinced the jury with authentic evidence.
