A mother in New York sneaks her young daughter out of a research hospital. A billionaire philanthropist in Texas fights to save his dying son at all costs. A young traffic-ticket lawyer in Austin named Andy Prescott runs his legal empire out of a tiny office above a tattoo parlor and dreams of being a rich lawyer. Lives on separate paths until Andy defends the billionaire's secretary against a speeding ticket. Their lives become fatefully intertwined, and Prescott learns that a client can be too rich for his lawyer's own good.
