Just Legal is a fast-paced procedural drama with humor starring Jay Baruchel and Don Johnson as lawyers who save their clients, and in the process, save themselves. David Skip Ross, 19, a brilliant legal prodigy, dreams of becoming a great trial lawyer. When he can't land a job at a prestigious L.A. firm because he's too young, Skip ends up working for Grant Cooper. Once a great lawyer, now burnt-out by the realities of life, Cooper is barely scraping by in his beachfront law office. Together, Skip and Cooper become defenders of the accused and crusaders for the unjustly wronged. Their cases vary from stories ripped from today's headlines to clever mysteries with procedural twists.
Brillant assistant juridique, David "Skip" Ross rêve de devenir un avocat prestigieux, mais peine à intégrer un grand cabinet du fait de son jeune âge. C'est alors que sa route croise celle de Grant H. Cooper, avocat cynique et désabusé, ayant autrefois connu son heure de gloire avant de tomber dans l'oubli. Touché par l'enthousiasme et les idéaux de Skip, Grant décide de le prendre sous son aile. Ensemble, ils vont défendre les causes justes que la plupart de leurs confrères évitent...
