曼哈顿的著名律师Harvey要招聘一名出众的新人律师副手,在满座哈佛法学院的高材生中,唯一引起他注意的却是Mike Ross——被大学赶了出来还不是律师的人。虽然他在法律方面的履历不如他人,但他却热爱这一行而且拥有神童般的大脑,只要他阅读了书上的内容并理解了就能过目不忘,如此说来,他的法律知识储备可一点不比哈佛法学院学生少。另外,他那小骗子的狡猾和机灵劲儿也让他显得尤为与众不同。于是,这两个都不太按常理出牌的人就成了“西装搭档”。When Jessica learns about Mike, she tells Harvey, thinking that he doesn't know, and tells him to fire him. But Harvey tries to stall hoping to find a way not to. And when Daniel Hardman, the Hardman in Pearson Hardman, decides to return to the firm, Jessica is not happy about that.
