A decent drama series from 1962-63 (28 episodes)about a lawyer who in San Francisco has a reputation of winning difficult cases. Not on par with Perry Mason and the stories are not as compelling but worth it to see Edmund O'Brien. If you are a fan on B&W TV dramas from the 1960's I recommend this series.
