Watch out for it: Canterbury's Law on ShowTime

The brand new courtroom drama Canterbury's Law, about a rebellious female defence attorney Elizabeth Canterbury who's willing to bend the law in order to protect the wrongfully accused showing every Saturday at 9 pm.

Elizabeth Canterbury (Julianna Margulies) is a force of nature. An attorney on the rise, she puts her career on the line to take on risky and unpopular cases, even when they take a toll on her personal life.

Elizabeth and her law professor husband, Matt Furey (Aidan Quinn), haunted by the unsolved disappearance of their young son, struggle to distance themselves from the tragedy and put their relationship back together.

But those goals become elusive whenever Elizabeth's work provides a stark reminder of the justice absent in their own lives.

At the office, Canterbury has surrounded herself with a brilliant crew of attorneys.

Canterbury's Law introduces an attorney like no other: one whose professional and personal battles are equally vivid; and whose strengths and vices, victories and demons, all combine to serve those in need of justice.

Help is on the way for the innocent.
