Despite
her captivity, Alex chose not to dwell in self pity. Rather
she was driven by the strength of mind that she could
one day find her daughter. While incarcerated, Alex studied
the ins and outs of the judicial system, earned her law
degree, and vowed that she would seek retribution on her
husband by becoming a lawyer. But, as a convicted felon,
Alex cannot legally practice law.
Now
on parole armed with determination, Alex lands a job as
an assistant to highly respected civil lawyer Hamilton
Whitney III. With his help, she uses her new skills to
champion underdog cases, clear her name, and begin the
search for her missing daughter, Mia.
Having
experienced her own clash with the legal system, Alex
uses the law to help those who have been abandoned by
the system. But her sassy, brash personality bumps hard
against Whitney’s reserved intensity and Harvard
education. Even though she keeps bringing in hard luck
cases from former inmates which he would otherwise avoid,
Alex’s quest for justice soon re-ignites Whitney’s
passion for the law.
Alex
proves that she has a remarkable gift for uncovering the
truth and bringing criminals to justice. Filled with suspense,
mystery, true grit, and good humour, Alex DeMonaco’s
drive to fight and win justice will make television audiences
want to stand up and cheer.
