She doesn't actually have much money, but Rudy observes that her son treats her better after being told she does. Soon Baylor and Shifflet have taken on trickier cases. One involves Kelly Riker Claire Danes , whose husband plays softball and likes to practice his swing on her. Coppola juggles these three cases with side stories involving the insurance company's amoral, high-paid lawyer Jon Voight and the continuing threat to Kelly from her husband.
Along the way, Rudy finds it necessary to violate what he understands of legal ethics, particularly when he gets personally involved with Kelly and she convinces him there is only one right thing to do in a desperate situation.
