This was fine 3.5 out of 5, but not as good as A Perfect Lie. Almost a Shakespearean comedy ending--All's Well That Ends Well. Too neat, too tidy for my taste.
The plot turns on industrial crime. The cubicle manufacturers were cutting corners. Fire. Death of employee. Simon, the man with the daughter with leukemia, had warned of shoddy work. He didn't know about the fire--it took place in a state outside his territory. The really bad guys murder a semi-bad guy and make it look like Simon did it. The plan is to get Simon convicted before he can learn about the fire.
Our two lawyers figure it out. They are then kidnapped by the bad guys and nearly killed at a remote hunting cabin. Through talk and courage, they defeat the bad guys. Turns out that the head of the firm, a slick schmoozer who pretended to be too far up to know what was happening, did know. So he's arrested too. Simon's daughter gets donor (Bennie, the lawyer). Mary turns out to be pregnant.
