First divorce lawyer Lynn Holt finds out her husband doesn't love her anymore. Then she discovers he's cleaned out their office and taken all their clients with him. So she throws a chair against the wall, stomping around in uncomfortable lingerie and rails against the stupidity of it all. Venting done, the lady lawyer woos new clients, takes on cases involving crackhead moms and cremated dogs, and plots revenge on her ex-partner.
