Just look at the empathy he has for his client. He is genuinely golden 👍✌️

[@purple1480]

Agreed, it’s a BEAUTIFUL thing to see

[@silversurfer1781]

I cannot help but compare the Amber and her team and Johnny and his team. Johnny's team seem to have genuine empathy toward him, Amber's team is the opposite.

[@pcx4545]

@@silversurfer1781 Well, if you are not a biased person you can fell sorry for JD because you can tell that he's a real victim of DA, but you also can tell that AH lawyers know she is guilty because of the evidence but they took their case only because of money and public exposure, but they know very well that success chance was zero

[@sdsurfgirl60]

@@pcx4545 an ethical attorney would have. Filed for substitution. No lawyer wants to look like a fool. Elaine puzzles me. As an experienced attorney she knew her client was lying to her and she kept representing her. My friend will drop a client like a HOT potato if his client lies to him. Elaine should have known better. Smh

[@jordankopp385]

It's easy to talk for someone you believe in! Honesty goes long way!

[@Ms.AggieMac]

Ben Chew - such a beautiful and gentle soul. What a wonderful representation for Johnny he is, and what a magnificent job he and the whole team did to ensure JD got his life back!! Very touching.

[@fkporsche1]

We will continue to support Johnny and his legal team. Stand with Johnny. Will buy the very next ticket for his movies and his rock concerts.

[@larungbatojutsu2427]

Indeed, but don't this gentle soul fools you, i remember when he was doing the counter motion to strike and literally point his finger on AH and said "she is a liar" dang man, he just says what I wanted to say, i'd be scared if i am standing in an opposite side of him, what a ruthless and cutthroat lawyer. But then when he is on your side can't imagine any better lawyer, especially when he's chocking during the closing arguments, that emotional build up u can't fake. Well done Mr. Chew and friends.

[@purple1480]

Amen! Well said

[@picilocarnal]

By the same token, Elaine was a perfect representation of Amber.😅 Ruthless, disrespectful, arrogant and unscrupulous.

[@Ms.AggieMac]

@@picilocarnal yes, and Rottenborn too, as well as all her witnesses - just as JDs all reflected him so well. Such stark contrasts between them all.

So much heart and integrity. You could tell it meant so much to him that he was able to help Johnny tell his story!

[@lareneandpipsqueeksully]

Men have and can be a victim of domestic violence! As Johnny Depps attorney pointed out! Congratulations Ben!

[@ktrudy1]

Absolutely

[@gwenmarie7311]

Exactly 💯💯

[@margaretmorales193]

Yes abuse has no gender or socioeconomic status. It can happen to anyone. I myself am a survivor of domestic violence. We survivors neeed to speak out about the truth and not be silenced anymore that's the only way he can be truly free . Johnnydepp was brave telling the truth for whole world to see . Ben cew and Camille and johnny 's team where amazing and deserve everything great coming their way . Amber and her team should be ashamed for the lies she has told . And still tries to tell. She doesn't speak for me or any other survivors ever and never will. Justice 4 johnny always . The right person won in my opinion. Will always live him and support him as a fan my entire life and survivor myself toooo. Mm

[@demoiselledelamontagne]

After listening to his interviews, I absolutely understand why Johnny trusted his name and life with this guy. Props to Ben Chew and of course Camille and the whole team

[@Winterhe4rt]

Imagine a grown man, a lawyer at that, tearing up in court and showing more real emotions than an alleged victim of abuse.

[@Michelle-vr9zl]

A world renowned attorney! I peeped his resume on the firm’s website. And….wow! He has accomplished so much. Here he is, literally brought to tears over his client. They have seen ALL the evidence…things we didn’t see. They know he is innocent and are emotionally invested because of that. Speaks volumes.

[@moonchild1686]

How nice of a man, with a huge heart. Thank you Ben Chew.

[@jocelyntraywick5945]

Love this guy. I hope for good things for him and his future with his career

[@joffymushtaq8804]

[@CAsaidit]

What a sweet man. Caring through and through.

[@loribaker8339]

My dad was a victim of domestic violence. He had to protect himself which made him have to be violent back. He was the best guy and dad in the world. Jealousy is a evil thing. People have to do what they have to do to protect themselves.

[@January.]

WRONG. Violence is violence. He should have walked away for good the first time and gotten a divorce. Ask any medical professional. DUH

[@sushmac1383]

​@@January.Don't duh, when you don't even know what the actual person went through. Some people love their partners so much that they see past through the abuse and genuinely want to help them. Until it acrosses the barrier when they actually move away.

[@January.]

@@sushmac1383 What does "acrosses" mean in English.

[@ashraf2661]

What a gem of a guy !!....truth, teamwork, and conviction made this a win for 'our' beautiful Johnny !!

[@overcomer4060]

Ben Chew is a lovely human being. I'm thankful for people like him in this world.

[@dimechick]

After watching the full trial; with all of the evidence it’s sickening how Amber lied and tormented this man, regardless of his celebrity status. I’m pleased that he was vindicated. Men can be victims of domestic violence as proven in this case.

[@joyabing7824]

I can feel the sincerity of Ben towards his client JD and any one can see how his team was deeply committed in making sure that JD had a fair share when it comes to speaking his truth.

[@barbarastevens4054]

This gentleman is the epitomé of decency, charisma, humbleness, ..., not to mention how beautifully articulate he is. A master class in behaviour, both inside and outside the courtroom.

[@aazznnaa]

Such a humble lawyer! Being in the legal industry for 20 yrs now, I've seen a lot of arrogant ones from my country who would be gloating their asses off if they were in Mr Ben Chew's position! 🙄🤢

[@afshinnanase4736]

I love that Johnny's lawyers are finally coming out talking in the most respectful way which is amazing. Love Ben Chew, he's a teddy bear!

[@reginamyers3287]

Johnny went to court to get the truth out because no one would have him on shows, or allow his side to be told in the MSM. He helped many men who suffered DV with this trial. There are, innocent men in prison & not able to see their children. Lesson: presume innocent until proven guilty.

If Johnny was guilty, there would have been others coming forward. How many have ZERO.

No. They want you to believe he transformed into an abuser in his 50s. He'd be really special, because empirically I think he would be less than 1% chance

[@marienosoucy]

Ben Chew is so moving and a class act. when we listen again to the opening statements of Ben and Camille the 1st day, we realize now how much they were true about A. Heard, she reacted during all the trial exactly as they told the jury she would do, lies on the stand and new lies again during cross examinations after the 1st ones had been discovered, over the top reactions + awful audio recordings yelling at Johnny Depp because he didn’t want to fight, they were so right from day one and so invested.
