FindLaw | Legal News & Information

Television's hottest attorney, Ally McBeal, is a Boston lawyer dedicated to short skirts, a pathological fantasy life, and the pursuit of true love. Emmy award-winning writer David E. Kelly has populated Ally's law firm with -- among others -- the craven founding partner Richard "bygones" Fish; nosey secretary Elaine Vassal; eccentric litigator John "the biscuit" Cage, Ally's former flame Billy; and his wife Georgia. These lawyers have never met a case too strange to try, or a thought too bizarre to voice, be it in the courtroom or their co-ed bathroom.

Ally McBeal is reviewed by Julie Hilden, a Yale Law School graduate who practiced First Amendment law at the Washington, D.C. law firm of Williams & Connolly from 1996-99. She is the author of a memoir, The Bad Daughter, and is currently living and working in New York, where she is a freelance writer. Her e-mail address is JulHil@aol.com.
