When Joshua has problems with Homeland Security, his mother calls in a lawyer. An old friend of hers. Walter Thompson.
Walt, who is thinking about retirement, steps in and takes over the case. He investigates every possibility to have Joshua, whom he believes to be innocent, cleared of all charges.
Walt becomes an important person in Joshua's life. Not simply his lawyer. His friend.
Meeting Joshua changes Walt in ways he never could have expected. His world, which had been fairly narrow, suddenly expands. He sees a universe of possibilities.
Walter Thonpson is a great defense attorney, in the manner of Clarence Darrow. Caring for his clients. Willing to roll up his sleeves and plunge into the situation. Passionate about justice.
There are many lawyer jokes out there. I don't know many of them are true. I should ask my sister, the lawyer.
Walter Thompson transcends the stereotypes, and creates a very memorable character.
