In an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE following the verdict, Vasquez admitted her team was “running on fumes” at one point during the trial as they worked around-the-clock onthe defamation case.

“After court, we would go back to the hotel where we lived and was our little nest, if you will, for months,” she said. “We would change. We would have food served. Then we had two war rooms where we would be until sometimes 5:00 in the morning the next day. It was very intense.”

Vasquez — who was made partner at her firm, Brown Rudnick, the week after the verdict — said collaborative efforts went into those big moments in the Fairfax, Virginia, court case.

“Before I did her cross and before I delivered the opening and closing arguments, I would go to bed around 1 or 2 in the morning,” she said. “And then my team would stay up till 5, 5:30 a.m., and slide whatever it was that we were working on under my door. I would wake up to them under my door and they would sleep for an hour, an hour and a half. Then we would all go to court together. I mean,we were really running on fumes.”

Vasquez added, “I was the one that delivered the cross-examination, but I was very clear that this wasn’tmycross examination. This was our team’s.”
