Alexandra Harrigan (called Alex) is a beautiful Assistant District Attorney working out of the Criminal Courts Building at Foley Square in Manhattan.
She works under Bureau Chief Jesse Steinberg (Hector Elizondo) and with Assistant DA Molly Dobbs (Cathy Silvers). Ambitious, eager and totally devoted to her job, she is hoping to become a DA but lacks the prosecutions necessary to achieve the position.

Other regular characters included Alex’s secretary Denise Williams (Vernee Watson); office manager Angel Gomez (Israel Juarbe); Alex’s lawyer boyfriend, Carter DeVries (Sanford Jensen); Zito (Robert Costanzo), a cop on the beat; and Spiro Papadopolis (Richard C. Sarafian), the owner of Spiro’s Coffee Shop.
