Vasquez is currently an associate at the Brown Rudnick’s Litigation & Arbitration Practice Group, and specialises in plaintiff-side defamation suits and also has experience in 'litigating contract disputes, business-related torts, and employment-related claims'.
How did Vasquez become a household name? Vasquez’s newfound social media popularity can be credited to her cross-examination of Amber Heard during her testimony; particularly when Heard testified about her pledge/donation of US $7 million to the American Civil Liberties Union and Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Vasquez is also gaining popularity for her cross-examination about how Heard earned her role in Aquaman.

Now, the big question: Are Camilla Vasquez and Johnny Depp dating? While it is being speculated that Vasquez is dating Depp, TMZ has clarified that the speculation is false and that Vasquez is currently dating a British real estate agent for the past several months.
Sources have confirmed to TMZ that the ‘smiling and giggling’ between Depp and Vasquez is entirely because 'she finds him funny and couldn't help but laugh at some of his antics and/or his sense of humour'.
