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. All the while, Mitch starts working on the Sarah Holt case and Kinross & Grant's reason to bring Mitch into the fold is slowly starting to surface.
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. Ray chats up the son of Sarah's alleged victim as well as the guy's ex-girlfriend. After catching a glimpse of a tough guy staring at him from the back of a courtroom, Mitch tells Abby, Ray, and Tammy about the FBI's concerns that the Mob fears for the family's safety. When the prosecution punches holes in the psychiatrist's story, Mitch throws a Hail Mary.
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. Three weeks before, watched by the Mob, Mitch is defending Judd Grafton, accused of murdering a local thug: Judd's been operating a casino at a bar owned by his friend John. The thug crippled John when he and Judd wouldn't cut him in on the casino's profits. Judd's plea is self defense, but prosecution evidence mounts. Meanwhile, Mitch's case against the makers of a faulty stent has hit a wall, and Ray visits Sarah Holt in jail and lets himself into her apartment: he makes a couple of crucial observations.
Defense Attorney Mitch McDeere is targeted for execution by the Chicago Mob in retaliation for bringing down a profitable Mob-operated Memphis law firm ten years earlier.
