Plot

David Hansen (Foxworth) is a big-shot lawyer who grew tired of his important and expensive Los Angeles law firm. Hansen left his job to start a non-profit firm called Neighborhood Legal Services based in Century City, California. His associates were Deborah Sullivan (Larken) and Gabriel Kay (Arkin). Roberto (Martinez) is a law student who worked for them as a clerk.

After thirteen episodes, the show's format was changed, as Hansen, Sullivan and Kay went to work for Devlin McNeil at the firm which Hansen had quit in the first place.
