He may not have a degree from an Ivy League University, but Jimmy’s quick wit, buoyant optimism, and sometimes-flamboyant approach make him a forceful advocate for his often down-market clients. Jimmy’s a highly competent lawyer, but his moral compass and his ambition are at war with each other, compromising his professional future and his romance with fellow attorney Kim Wexler.
