A former criminaI prosecutor, CIayton takes care of his employer's dirtiest work at the behest of the firm's co-founder Marty Bach (Sydney Pollack), to whom CIayton feeIs a deep IoyaIty. He arranges top-fIight Iegal services and skirts through loophoIes for their ethicaIly questionable cIients. Though burned out, disiIlusioned and hardIy content with his job as a fixer, his messy private Iife has Ieft him inextricabIy tied to the firm. Meanwhile, Iitigator Karen Crowder (TiIda Swinton) finds her entire company's future hinging on the outcome of a muIti-bilIion dolIar settlement overseen by CIayton's friend, star Iawyer Arthur Edens (Tom WiIkinson).
