Speaking about her new role, meanwhile, Vasquez said: “I am delighted that Brown Rudnick has given me its full vote of confidence by having me join the partnership.
“I’m proud of the uniquely talented team I’ve had the privilege to lead, which exemplified teamwork and collaboration, and I look forward to continuing to represent Brown Rudnick’s culture of excellence.”
The promotion follows recent reports that there are plenty of other employers that are looking to get Vasquez to join their team.
On top of a number of law firms reportedly trying to acquire her services, sources told the New York Post that she has already received offers from several TV networks and cable channels hoping to have her “weigh in on legal matters and… speak with her about on-air opportunities”.
One source told the outlet: “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”.
