Representing the bereaved parents, the unlikeliest of heroes emerges: a young, flamboyant Porsche-driving lawyer who hopes to win millions of dollars and ends up nearly losing everything -- including his sanity. A Civil Actionis the searing, compelling tale of a legal system gone awry -- one in which greed and power fight an unending struggle against justice.
