The Defenders

Set in New York City, this series follows the courtroom dramas of Lawrence Preston, a trial lawyer, and his son, attorney Kenneth Preston.

 

The Defenders (1961)

Recent law school graduate (Robert Reed) joins his father (E.G. Marshall) as the pair tackle challenging legal cases, often involving issues which were highly touchy for the times (abortion, euthanasia, "un-American" activities, movie censorship). In most the freshly minted lawyer has much to learn from his father's extensive legal experience.
