Ugh. Suits might be the most absurd depiction of big law firm life ever. And that's really saying something. The idea of having associates at a big firm work for one single partner is just... freaking absurd. It's the opposite of my experience and that of every classmate and colleague I've ever met. (And nobody hires you without getting a certified copy of your final transcript, either.)
Anyway. Grisham sets some of his books in the world of big-firm law -- The Associate is the one that sticks out the most. I liked that book until the ending, when it sort of stopped rather than concluded.
