Are the lawyers at Pearson Hardman accurate portrayals of real-life attorneys?
Suits is a show that portrays the lives of some of the most sophisticated, intelligent, and clever lawyers in New York City, filled with classy wardrobe and television's wittiest dialogue. The USA original series follows Mike Ross , a brilliant young man with an eidetic memory that allows him to recall information with computer-like precision, as he begins working as a Junior Associate in one of New York's most prestigious law firms.
Harvey Specter, one of the show's main characters, may be New York's best closer and one of its finest attorneys, but in the real world? He would have been disbarred several times over— and that's even if you exclude the Mike Ross-shaped fraud he was actively involved in. Specter is renowned for his poker face and impeccable bluffing skills, which puts his clients and opponents right where he needs them.
Some Inaccuracies Actually Make 'Suits' Better While the major inaccuracies in the series might make most litigators and pre-law students cringe at how far from the truth they are, many of the changes made serve to make Suits an engaging television show.
Another inaccuracy is the breadth of cases that Pearson Hardman attorneys all take. Though characters like Louis Litt are noted for their specialty in finance law, every lawyer seems to be able to take on cases that deal with pretty much anything. Whether it's a pro bono sexual harassment case, patent infringement, or criminal defense, these litigators are able to handle it; which isn't what it's like in real life.
