The history of attorneys on TV dates back to the 1950s with the appearance of “Mr. Malone” on NBC in 1951. The genre is alive and well today with more than a dozen law-related shows on broadcast television at any one time, not to mention the shows available on cable and streaming networks.
20. Harvey Birdman, “Harvey Birdman, “Attorney at Law”. The first thing that should be noted is that Harvey Birdman is the only lawyer that has “Attorney at Law” in the title of his show.
Andy Gillin received his Bachelor’s Degree from the University of California at Berkeley and his law degree from the University of Chicago. He is the managing partner of GJEL Accident Attorneys and has written and lectured in the field of plaintiffs’ personal injury law for numerous organizations. Andy is a highly recognized wrongful death lawyer in California.
When it comes to television attorney, there are well-respected attorneys and there is Perry Mason. Mason is the attorney that all other small-screen attorneys wish they could be and, even more than 50 years since the original series went off the air, remains that standard for all other TV courtroom dramas.
The primary one, however, is Arnie Becker.
Ben Matlock, “Matlock”. A gentlemanly Southern lawyer , Matlock may have moved slow and was tight with a buck, but he always got his man or woman. The homespun philosophy that you received every episode was a bonus as was the ability to watch Andy Griffith continue to ply his trade. 6. Jackie Chiles, “Seinfeld”.
Ally McBeal, “Ally McBeal”. If nothing else, “Ally McBeal” gave us the “Dancing Baby,” which was a reference to the biological clock ticking away for McBeal. Again, McBeal doesn’t really make the list because of her prowess in the courtroom, which wasn’t seen all that often — even though she did graduate from Harvard.

Hutz wasn’t the greatest at his day job, but if you needed a paranoid knife-wielding babysitter for your kids, he was your man. Night Court. John Larroquette as horndog scumbag prosecutor Dan Fielding stole the show, giving Larroquette more screen time as the show went on. Suits.
Best quality: he works pro bono. Better Call Saul. Back by popular demand, Bob Odenkirk stars as small-time pubic defender Jimmy McGill (aka Saul Goodman ) in this spinoff to Breaking Bad.
Seinfeld. Jackie Chiles (played by Phil Morris) shows up in the later seasons of Seinfeld as a clear parody of attorney Johnnie Cochran (of O.J. Simpson murder case fame). Chiles’ wildly osciliating emotions and enunciated verbosity made him a standout character in a series full of memorable random characters.
Like Drop Dead Diva, JAG had a big hook: a legal procedural set in and around the U.S. Navy. David James Elliott plays the main judge advocate, who pits his military code of ethics against cases inspired by real-life events. Harry’s Law.
But the top prize goes to Sam Waterston who played the diligent and driven Jack McCoy for 15 seasons. Matlock. In his most enduring role, Andy Griffith played Ben Matlock for nine seasons with wit and humor, playing up the character’s penchant for hot dogs and extreme thrift (despite charging $100,000 per case).
Perry Mason. Defense attorney Perry Mason was so good at his job, he frequently exposed killers without ever going to trial. Raymond Burr played the character for nine seasons starting in 1957, and successfully revived the character for 26 more TV movies starting in the mid 1980s. Damages.

Jack McCoy ("Law & Order") For 16 seasons, Jack McCoy presided over the "Order" part of the show, first as assistant district attorney and then district attorney.
Annalise Keating ("How to Get Away with Murder") There might not be a more empowering fictional female attorney than Keating (showcased by Emmy-winner Viola Davis).

John Grisham, one of the great fictional law drama writers of all time, turned 65 this month. His books, some of which have been turned into films, have been captivating fans for years and some of the biggest stars in Hollywood have been involved.
Jackie Chiles ("Seinfeld") A shyster of an attorney, Chiles (Phil Morris) represented Kramer in such cases as going after a coffee company, Sue Ellen Mischke, the Oh Henry! candy bar heiress, and the tobacco companies.
Now Dan Fielding (John Larroquette) was not a bad assistant DA in the Manhattan Municipal Court. However, he seemed more preoccupied with the ladies than the law, which considering the other characters surrounding him, did not make him too bad of a person.
