Under the guidance of his mentor, Mia Fey, Phoenix agrees to take on a murder case where his close childhood friend, Larry Butz, has been charged as the prime suspect. When Mia is later found dead at her office, it’s up to Phoenix to defend his clients and outsmart his cut-throat rival, prosecutor Miles Edgeworth.
