Plot:

The series follows Ted Black, who was once a prosecutor in New York, where Harvey Specter used to work in the District Attorney's office. Black leaves his position as a federal prosecutor in Manhattan, New York, to start his life again on the West Coast. He opens Black Lane Law in Los Angeles, aiming to represent some of the city's most powerful clients. 

According to the logline for the series, Black's firm "is at a crisis point" and to survive he "must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career." The show delves into the challenges he faces with his team, balancing personal and professional relationships while unraveling the mystery of why he left New York to begin with. 

Suits LA is set to premiere on February 23, 2025, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on NBC; episodes will be available to stream on Peacock the day after each episode airs.
