The Firm

When lawyer Mitch McDeere defends a young teen accused of murdering a classmate, he must contend with the raw emotions of the victim's family.

With Judge Trott's decision on whether to try Donnell Heywood as an adult or juvenile pending, the murdered boy's father seeks hisown brand of justice and Mitch and Ray try to intervene before more tragedy results.

Now associated with the Kinross & Clark law firm, Mitch is forced to defend a partners' son on a murder charge. Unhappy with his new case assignment, Mitch puts Ray to work by having him investigate what really happened.

While Mitch defends a psychiatrist accused of murdering a former patient who was stalking her, Alex and Andrew at Kinross & Clark are focused on wiping clean the hard drive of Sarah Holt's computer, which is in police custody.

In the present, Mitch is running for his life. Thinking he's lost his pursuers, he talks to Abby and Ray on his cell as he heads toward a rendezvous with Andrew.

Mitch's client-of-the-day becomes a pawn in a judge's election campaign. A new clue in the Sarah Holt case leads to the insurance company where Mitch first meets Martin Moxon. Mobster Morolto refrains from action, raising eyebrows.

Mitch takes on the defense of "slow" guy Nate, accused of a robbery which led to murder, along with his brother and a friend - only one can turn state's witness for a plea bargain. Moxon shows up for the fateful meeting at the hotel.

Andrew springs Mitch from jail. While Mitch represents a scientist suing a corporate raider, Ray works on figuring out who broke down the hotel door in pursuit of Mitch, and Tammy and Abby try to make sense of the list of numbers Moxon provided.

Prompted by a midnight call from Andrew, Mitch looks out the window to see a black ops team headed for his house. Can he get his family out in time?

Well-armed men make a midnight search through the McDeere house while the family hides. Jump back a few weeks: Tammy has a new job, Abby suspects that a student's father is abusing him, and a priest asks Mitch to defend a young Latin woman accused of kidnapping an infant.

Under siege at night, Mitch's family runs out the back door. Two weeks earlier, Mitch takes the case of a condemned murderer, scheduled to die in Virginia, who wants to offer his heart to the teen daughter of the man he murdered.

Mitch, Ray, Abbie, and Claire make their escape, rendezvous with Tammy and call Coleman. Mitch wants to meet with Andrew.

Abby and Claire are under Coleman's protection, but Mitch, Ray, and Tammy, who abandoned their evidence against Nobel when they ran from the house, steer clear of the FBI and agree to meet with Andrew. Are they being set up?

Stack throws a wrench into the trade that Mitch wants to make: the stolen hard drive for Abby.

Mitch abandonne un échange de disque dur contre Abby : elle est toujours portée disparue et il craint qu'elle ne soit morte. Ray et lui discutent avec le FBI pour tout leur raconter. Le FBI émet des mandats contre Stack et Alex ; tous deux ont des plans d'urgence en cas d'arrestation.

Abbie takes on Kevin Stack in court; does Stack have an Achilles' heel? Ray looks for leverage with one of Stack's followers, and Stack finally explains himself. Mitch and Abbie's marriage reaches a crisis point.

Abby is determined to sort things out by herself, so she takes Claire to Kentucky to meet her parents - to whom she hasn't spoken since entering witness protection. Her dad wants a relationship while her mother remains stiff-necked.

The Chicago Mob may be making its move. With Abby and Claire in Kentucky, Mitch throws himself into his work, taking a criminal case for Kinross & Clark, defending a famous reclusive novelist charged with the murder of his sister.

Joey Morolto gives Mitch an offer he can't refuse -- if Mitch defends his best friend from a murder charge, the McDeeres and the Moroltos will be square.

Before jury selection in Patrick Walker's murder trial, Mitch and the prosecutor engage in a back and forth on Patrick's pattern of behavior - a woman from his college days recounts a date that turned ugly.

Patrick Walker's trial moves to jury selection: Joey refuses to testify (weakening the defense) and doubles down on his threats to Mitch. Tammy and Ray's wedding draws closer as does everyone's fear that they may have to go into hiding again.

On the day of Ray and Tammy's wedding, a new enemy threatens to destroy the joyous family occasion.
