Skipping out early from her own bachelorette party, solicitor Tara Rafferty is shocked to find her fiancé and law firm colleague, Eric, in bed with another woman. Brokenhearted, Tara leaves Eric and the firm to build her own practice in the hopes of starting fresh.

Ray asks for Tara's help when a friend's son is taken away by Social Services, and Vincent also hires Tara to assist on a case. Growing pressure from her family, former law firm, and Eric make Tara suspect someone is trying to sabotage her.

Following Meg's betrayal, Tara's team has been evicted from the cafe and Ray is in jail. Tara is convinced that Eric's father is behind it all. While working to free Ray, Tara also picks up an immigration case defending a woman scheduled to be deported in a few days' time.

Tara is approached by a father who claims his child's mother should not have custody because she lives in a commune. Vincent lashes out at Tara about the corruption inquiry, and Ray starts his own investigation.

Tara becomes closer with Eric's brother, Sam, while her office mate, George, defends a family known to be involved in crime, but the case is complicated when Tara accidentally finds damning evidence.

Tara helps an ex-nun suing her order for breach of contract, but the case pits Tara against Eric and the woman he cheated with. Vincent's new witness gives evidence that helps his inquiry, causing anxiety at Dunbar & Calloway.
