The longer it goes on, the less credible the story becomes; the weak plot runs out of steam long before the story limps to a feeble finish. I wonder if the legal details are remotely accurate; if so, the Polish judicial system is one big kangaroo court. Only days after a child goes missing, a suspect is put on trial for murder, even though there's no body! Only in Poland? Incredibly, there seem to be several more seasons of this mediocre melodrama.

How dare a female lawyer act like the male lawyers do in most of these kind of series! Give it a chance. Or, remember these comments when you watch the male versions. Please.

The main character is vulgar, frequently drunk and drives too fast. When she's not too wasted to answer her phone, she's getting serial killers off. Not clear how she's supposedly a great lawyer, because it seems like she should be disbarred. The plot is full of holes as another reviewer mentioned and it doesn't make sense that people would retain her when she is a drunk and nasty and racist toward them. I guess I've just run out of things to watch and I was intrigued because this series is Polish.

I found the characters well written, true depictions of differing personality types and realistic. The criminal justice system creates a tough atmosphere where the subjects are tough, trust has to be earned and progress can be slow. I thought the main characters were very well acted. An excellent complex show.

No, it's not a simplistic plot, you have to engage with the plot to appreciate it fully.

It is difficult to watch someone, especially someone who seems they have everything, show self destructive behavior. But often this is part and parcel of dealing with pathological, criminal behavior. I sincerely enjoyed the writing.

I loved the damaged brilliant lawyer role played by Magdalena Cielecka and her dinamic with the male characters.

She's fierce and afraid of nothing and nobody. You have to admire that!

I found some scenes in the crime stories to be too explicit and cruel, but overall it helped built the narrative.

Coming from a former comunist country myself, showing parts of that history with people living in constant fear and corrupt prosecutors and law enforcement stealing from people and destroying lives because was spot on because that's a true story.

I know the story is over and it closed things in a way, but I could have watched a few more seasons for sure.
