Plot Summary:

It’s not an easy decision for Claire and Joanna Darrow to accept the case of a lawyer who wronged Joanna, but it’s the right one. Cassie Piper was tricked by her bosses into leveling the accusation that ended Joanna’s New York career, and has now been similarly framed. Facing felony charges and the nightmare of losing her daughter, Cassie is desperate. When an apparent attempt on the life of her ex-boss results in another man’s death, there is ample evidence linking Cassie to the crime. Meanwhile, Claire and DA Miles Strasberg take stock of their as-yet-undefined relationship.

My Rating:

My Thoughts:

This movie is a bit different from the last three as it focuses more on the case again than on Claire’s personal life with her mom, daughter, and potential suitor in Miles. In this one, the Darrow and Darrow practice got two cases with one defendant. We have the case that Cassie originally brought to them about facing corporate espionage that Joanna is eager to help her win. Then we have the case that they accidentally stumbled into with Cassie being the murder suspect and trying to kill her old boss.

There was a lot of going around in circles on this case, eventually, though they figured it out which was good. And the bad guy got put in jail.

The best part of this movie, in my opinion, was when Claire finally told Miles how she felt and kissed him in the conference room. It was great and something that they have been building for the past three movies so I’m glad that they are finally together.
