Looking very much like a pilot for TV series Legal Action casts Eric Close as an
action hero type lawyer who when we meet him has a 39 case winning streak
when his ex-wife Tanya Clarke calls on him for a freebie. Her brother who has
been a bad boy all his life is accused of murdering the District Attorney and it
looks like he was nailed at the courthouse with murder weapon in hand. Kevin
Sizemore is looking guilty as sin.
Nevertheless Close takes the case and even hires an investigator, an old reprobate played by Nick Searcy.
Behind all the villainy is a really scary dude replete with Scottish accent played by Tommy Flanagan. But Close is a man who does believe in out of court settlements when he can get them. The settlement is most definitely out of court and in the tradition of the old west.
This might get picked up as a series. Nothing great but I've seen worse made into a series.
