The Practice focused on the meijubar.net law firm of Robert Donnell and Associates (later becoming Donnell, Young, Dole, & Frutt, and ultimately Young, Frutt, & Berluti). Plots typically featured the firm’s involvement in various high-profile criminal and civil cases that often mirrored current events at the time of the episodes’ initial broadcast. Conflict between legal ethics and personal morality was a recurring theme.
