Justice (Fox)

In JUSTICE, high-powered criminal defense lawyers do their best to represent their clients well in a time when many are simultaneously being tried in the media. Victor Garber stars as Ron Trott, the brash and uber-confident head of the law firm of Trott, Nicholson, Tuller & Graves, who often rubs both reporters and juries the wrong way. Joining him are Tom Nicholson (Kerr Smith), an earnest, engaging, and well-meaning litigator, Luther Graves (Eamonn Walker) who often takes a backseat to his more outspoken colleagues but pitches in by expertly analyzing the opposing counsel's case, and clinician Alden Tuller (Rebecca Mader), who's in charge of analyzing forensic evidence.

Justice is well-acted and -- like CSI and Without a Trace, which are also produced by Jerry Bruckheimer -- suspenseful and engaging. But it goes a step further with slick cinematography (in one scene, viewers watch an elevator descend in its shaft, then segue inside the elevator) and quick scene changes.

That said, while Justice offers viewers an eye-opening look at the inner workings of criminal defense law, its more mature elements -- violent crime scenes, crude language, characters who don't mind compromising their ethics to get ahead, etc. -- might give parents pause.
