Disturbed by the details of the case, the client allegedly stuffed his spouse's body into his Jaguar's trunk and took the kids along as he dumped the corpse, Will bends his conscience and, eventually, his psyche to the needs of the firm. As he rises to his greatest professional challenges, his personal life plummets, Ellie, Will's wife and the mother of their two young sons, wants a divorce. He must find his way back into her good graces, and get his murderous client off the hook.
