Адвокат Ник Фаллин получает 1500 часов общественных работ за употребление наркотиков. Теперь ему предстоит отстаивать интересы неимущих детей. Эта работа превращает эгоистичного Ника в благородного защитника тех, кто действительно нуждается в помощи.
Nick Fallin is a hotshot lawyer working at his father's ultrasuccessful Pittsburgh law firm. Unfortunately, the high life has gotten the best of Nick. Arrested for drug use, he's sentenced to do 1,500 hours of community service, somehow to be squeezed into his 24/7 cutthroat world of mergers, acquisitions and board meetings. Reluctantly, he's now The Guardian - a part-time child advocate at Legal Aid Services, where one case after another is an eye-opening instance of kids caught up in difficult circumstances.
