Life is a series about lawyers – but it is not specifically about the law. It is not about the laws that rule people’s lives; it’s about the impulses that rule their behaviour. Life is about life, death and culpability. It is about the devastation felt by the victim’s family and it is about the gruelling, sometimes unbearable ordeal that an accused must endure when charged with a crime which carries maximum penalty – even when they are guilty.
