Legal Affairs (2021)
8/10
Has you on the Edge of your seat

You're not quite sure about this cracker-jack lawyer when you first meet her. She does not suffer fools and when she's on a mission - or a case - you'd best stay in line or just get out of the way.

The series moves at fast pace with multiple storylines in parallel. The acting is top rate, and each scene draws you into the moment.

Our lawyer protagonist, Leo Roth, takes on cases with ties to the world around social media and those who fall into its traps.

She also carries a torturous memory from her childhood, a memory which is also shared by her sister and closest, perhaps only true friend, Ulli.

Leo also represents her brother-in-law, Ulli's husband, a prominent Senator, Kai, in a tangled mess of a case he's gotten himself mixed up in, and which almost ends up upending Leo's very prestigious career. That case threads it's way through each episode, crescendoing in a most devastating climax in the finale, where Leo finds herself well and truly alone in exposing the truth.

It is a captivating series, that will most definitely draw you in and have you buckled in for an exciting ride. I hope this is not the last we see of Leo Roth.
