List of episodes

The first season of Harry's Law, a legal dramedy created by David E. Kelley, premiered on January 17, 2011, and concluded on April 4, 2011. The season consisted of twelve hour-long episodes that aired Monday nights at 10pm on NBC. The series stars Kathy Bates as Harriett Korn, a patent lawyer who is fired from her firm when she is caught smoking cannabis in her office. She subsequently starts her own small firm in a storefront that used to be a shoe store where she defends clients charged with serious crimes.
