Depp’s attorney (not one that represented him at trial) published statements about her that the jury determined were defamatory and caused her $2 million in damages. She made counterclaims when Depp sued her and she convinced the jury on one of those counterclaims.

I missed that part of the trial, but basically Depp's attorney claimed her and her friends set up a house to make it look like he roughed her up and then called 911 to report it. Apparently, they were able to show the attorney's claims were untrue and he knew it so Depp was liable for his attorney's actions at the time.
