9/10

"This TV series tries not to lecture too much in order to recognize that people who are good at their jobs can have many other flaws.

Most characters in the show are somewhat dysfunctional and yet they have decent core values. And the most dysfunction is the main character who happens to be an excellent lawyer dealing with very difficult to defend cases or sometimes guilty people. The acting and the dialog is superb. Every single episode that I have seen has been well written and that ..."

Cleaver Greene's character is loosely based on one of Sydney's most colourful barristers, an author and co-creator of Rake, Charles Waterstreet. Both (fictional) Greene and Waterstreet have a Bachelor of Law from the University of New South Wales.
