Kanye West has reportedly hired Camille Vasquez, one of the attorneys who helped Johnny Depp win his infamous defamation trial against Amber Heard.<\/p>\n

According to TMZ, the Los Angeles-based lawyer, 38, and her firm, Brown Rudnick, will oversee all of the business matters \u2014 including contracts and deals \u2014 for the Yeezy CEO, 45.<\/p>\n

West \u2014 who legally changed his name to Ye in October 2021 \u2014 appears to be in dire need of Vasquez’s services as many of his partnerships are dwindling due to his controversial \u201cWhite Lives Matter\u201d T-shirts and anti-Semitic remarks.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Adidas announced that their deal with the \u201cJesus Walks\u201d rapper was \u201cunder review\u201d and just this week, Balenciaga cut ties with him altogether.<\/p>\n

Vasquez gained a lot of notoriety during Depp’s trial, in part because of romance rumors between her and the \u201cPirates of the Caribbean\u201d star, 59. <\/p>\n

However, slammed those attorney, calling them \u201csexist\u201d and \u201cunethical.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vasquez also became well-respected by the public for her cross-examination of Heard, 36, and her firm ultimately recognized that good work as well by making her partner after the trial.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delighted to welcome Camille to the partnership,\u201d William Baldiga, chairman and CEO of Brown Rudnick, said in a press release in June.<\/p>\n

\u201cHistorically, we have reserved this announcement for the end of our fiscal year. But Camille’s performance during the Johnny Depp trial proved to the world that she was ready to take this next step now. We are incredibly proud of her and look forward to what she will accomplish as our newest partner.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vasquez could not immediately be reached for comment on whether she is representing West. His reps also did not immediately return our requests.<\/p>\n

West has been recently doing a lot of hiring and firing when it comes to his attorneys.<\/p>\n

In late September, the father of four brought on Melinda Gates’ former divorce lawyer, Robert Stephan Cohen, to represent him in his case against ex-wife Kim Kardashian.<\/p>\n

A rep for the senior partner at Cohen Clair Lans Greifer Thorpe & Rottenstreich LLP confirmed to Page Six at the time that West had retained him as counsel. <\/p>\n

Kardashian, 42, filed for divorce in February 2021 after nearly seven years of marriage. The former couple were declared legally single this March.<\/p>\n

According to TMZ, Vasquez will not be involved in West’s divorce case.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
