The Brief - Season 2 (2005)

Defense attorney Henry Farmer knows all about train wrecks: his love life has derailed, and his financial situation has crashed, leaving him temporarily homeless. Now he must deal with his own father as a witness in the trial of a train driver.

Henry's newest client, a sufferer Asperger's syndrome accused of murdering his mother, may be the only habitually honest person involved in the case. Revelations of adultery and a suspicious bruise complicate matters almost as much as Henry's own life.

Henry defends a nurse accused of murdering an elderly patient who added her to his will two day before his death. Unfortunately, she's determined to speak out and clear her name no matter what Henry says.
