The lovers at Finley & Figg-all two of them-often make reference to themselves as "a store law firm." Boutique, just as chic, selective, and successful. They are, of course, none of them of these things. What they are is a two-bit procedure always searching for their big rest, ambulance chasers who've experienced the trenches much too long making way too little. Their specialties, so to speak, are quickie divorces and DUIs, with the casual jackpot of an actual car wreck thrown in. After twenty plus years collectively, Oscar Finley and Wally Figg bicker like an old married few but somehow continue steadily to scratch out a half-decent living using their seedy bungalow office buildings in southwest Chicago. And change comes their way. More accurately, it stumbles in. David Zinc, a young but already burned-out law firm, walks from his fast-track profession at a elegant downtown firm, goes on a serious bender, and sees himself literally at the doorstep of our own boutique firm. Once David sobers up and involves grips with the actual fact that he's out of the blue unemployed, any job-even one with Finley & Figg-looks okay to him. Using their new associate on board, F&F is preparing to tackle a really big case, a case that will make the partners wealthy without needing them to really practice much laws. An extremely popular medicine, Krayoxx, the number one cholesterol reducer for the dangerously heavy, made by Varrick Labs, a giant pharmaceutical company with annual sales of $25 billion, has come under hearth after several patients taking it have experienced heart problems. Wally smells money. Just a little online research confirms Wally's suspicions-a huge plaintiffs' firm in Florida is putting together a category action suit against Varrick. All Finley & Figg has to do is find a handful of people who've had heart problems while taking Krayoxx, convince them to be clients, become a member of the category action, and trip along to popularity and fortune. With any luck, they won't even have to get into a courtroom! It almost seems too good to be true. Which is.
