THE DEFENDER

Mickael Haller, is a criminal litigation specialist. One day, he is hired by

Louis Roulet, who comes from a family dedicated to the real estate
business. He is accused of attempting to rape a prostitute. For the
lawyer who always won his cases everything was simple, until he
realizes that the case was similar to one that worked years ago and that
an innocent was purging an unjust sentence.

The defense attorney directs investigations to his friend Franck Levin.

The investigator realizes that Louis Roulet was at the scene of the crime
years ago, since a police officer had imposed a fine. With the evidence of
the current crime they are certain that it was Roulet. Faced with this
discovery, the investigator was murdered in his home with the pistol of
the defense lawyer. Haller, thinks the killer was his defendant.

From that moment, Haller does everything possible to rid his client of the
current crime, even though his client had confessed to the crime but the
lawyer could not disclose it because of client - lawyer confidentiality.

The plan that had the defender was to incriminate Roulet of the
homicide case for which if he was guilty and an innocent was in jail.

Fortunately, the plan proved positive, however, the young man was soon
released and tried to take revenge against the family of the defender.
This was not possible because of the lawyer's quick reaction as he called
his friends from a motorcycle club who prevented him.

The defender thought it was all over and headed home, but Roulet's
mother was waiting for him at home with a gun. She shot him and he
responded in the same way. Finally the lady died and the lawyer lived to
tell.
