Jared Franklin and Peter Bash are best buddies, forging their friendship through their work as aggressive street lawyers. They'll chase down their clients, literally, and work just as aggressively to win any case. Their style, notably Jared's brash presentation skills and Peter's penchant for connecting with a judge and jury, also wins over Stanton Infeld, the senior partner at one of the top law firms in Los Angeles, who recruits the pair to inject some life into his buttoned-down firm. That won't be easy, however, if Damien Karp has his say. Karp is Infeld's nephew, a straitlaced lawyer whose own plans for the firm in no way include welcoming unpredictable co-workers.
