The series revolves around a fictional
Hong Kong senior counsel named Tony Chaing Man-To (Adam Cheng ). Senior Counsel Tony is well known for winning 31 legal cases in a row, but is also notorious in legal circles for his unsavory (but ethical nonetheless) tactics. He is also notorious for being retained as counsel by unscrupulous businessman Richard Ngai Sing-Kwan (Bill Chan ). His focus on his legal career has also alienated family member and anyone romantically involved. His daughter, Stephanie Chiang Si-Ting (Leila Tong ), particularly hates him for not only his modus operand in legal battles (strike a victory on procedural errors, and not on evidence).All this changed when Tony was dealt a career blow by Richard. In an assault case involving Richard, Richard asked Tony's apprentice, Darren Li Kong-Tak (
Power Chan ), to conspire in a conspiracy to bribe a witness and have him lie in court by professingamnesia . When Tony protested, Richard fired Chiang, and cut off much of the businesses that came to Tony's law firm. In the process, Tony lost his girlfriend, Sophie So Yeuk-Fei (Anne Heung ), to Richard. Tony drowned his sorrows in alcohol, and assaulted a foreigner at a bar. Chiang pled guilty to assault, and was sentenced to community service. That was where he began to rediscover the lost idealism and righteousness of his youth and met Chong Hiu-Wai (Louisa So ) whom showed him there is more to life...List of court cases
