"Kiedy Kevin Taylor dołącza do wziętej, ekskluzywnej firmy prawniczej na Manhattanie, specjalizującej się w prawie karnym spółki John Milton i Wspólnicy, oznacza to dla niego długo wyczekiwaną poprawę losu. Wreszcie może się wraz z żoną cieszyć wszystkimi luksusami, jakich oboje pragnęli – pieniędzmi, limuzyną z szoferem, a nawet olśniewającą siedzibą w strzelistym apartamentowcu w samym sercu Nowego Jorku. Kevin nie zdaje sobie jednak sprawy z tego, że związał się właśnie z podejrzanym, mrocznym stowarzyszeniem... Jego nowy szef, John Milton, z miejsca przydziela mu zapowiadającą się na jedną z najgłośniejszych spraw roku, wręczając mu w tym celu dokumentację sporządzoną jeszcze przed popełnieniem zbrodni. Kevin rzuca się w wir pracy, lecz rychło dostrzega niepokojące, wręcz złowrogie szczegóły, jakie stopniowo wyłaniają się spod atrakcyjnej fasady jego nowej firmy. Gdy zauważa, że jego współpracownicy zwyciężają w każdej potyczce na sali sądowej, a wszyscy ich klienci zostają oczyszczeni z zarzutów, jego narastające podejrzenia przeobrażają się w autentyczny strach. Kevin, nie wiedząc o tym jeszcze, został ADWOKATEM DIABŁA i nie ma dla niego ratunku przed światem potępionych..."--
