SYNOPSIS:
Law school graduate Joan Hayes (Jean Arthur) is so impressed with the brilliant accomplishments and successful trial record of attorney Matthew Mitchell (Jack Holt) that she hounds him for a job. Impressed by her spunk and intelligence, Mitchell hires her but Joan quickly becomes disillusioned with her employer's criminal clients and the questionable methods he uses to win cases.

Ethics triumph over immorality in this rousing courtroom drama based on a screenplay by Oscar nominee Jo Swerling (The Pride of the Yankees-1924).
