About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
Frank Galvin is a down-on-his-luck lawyer and reduced to drinking and ambulance chasing, when a former associate reminds him of his obligations in a medical malpractice suit by serving it to Galvin on a silver platter—all parties are willing to settle out of court. Blundering his way through the preliminaries, Galvin suddenly realizes that the case should actually go to court—to punish the guilty, to get a decent settlement for his clients... and to restore his standing as a lawyer.
A heavy layer of moral exhaustion settles over every smoky courtroom and rain-slicked street. This principled underdog fights to reclaim his dignity against a corrupt legal machine intent on burying the truth.
