Olympia and the team take on a wrongful termination case for a client called Alex (Danielle Larracuente) after she’s dismissed following allegations of sexual assault against a senior employee, Jeremy (Chad Coe).
When Jacobson Moore’s jury expert, Shae Banfield (Yael Grobglas) identifies the jury’s impressions of Olympia as a stumbling block to victory, it’s Madeline who’s asked to bring the case home. After persuading Judge Bolding (Chuck McCollum) to admit some strong evidence of past criminal conduct by Jeremy, things look positive. But can she persuade the jury to award Alex the settlement she deserves?
This episode was directed by Brad Silberling. The writer was Nicki Renna.
