Chicago Justice is a legal drama television series that premiered on NBC in March 2017. The show is created by Dick Wolf, who is well-known as the creator of the successful Law & Order franchise. The series is set in Chicago and follows the lawyers and investigators who work at the State's Attorney's Office, as they seek justice for victims of crimes in the city.

The series stars Philip Winchester as Peter Stone, a passionate and driven Assistant State's Attorney who comes from a family of lawyers. Jon Seda plays Antonio Dawson, a Senior Investigator who has previously appeared in the Law & Order: Special Victims Unit series. Joelle Carter stars as Laura Nagel, an Assistant State's Attorney who brings a tough attitude to the team. The series also features Carl Weathers as Mark Jefferies, the Cook County State's Attorney, and Monica Barbaro as Anna Valdez, a new Assistant State's Attorney.

Each episode of Chicago Justice focuses on a different crime or legal case, and the show opens with the build-up to the crime, often showing a snippet of the crime or its immediate aftermath. The Attorney's Office then takes on the case, and the team works together to build a strong case against the perpetrator. The show is notable for its use of real Chicago locations, which give the series a strong sense of place and authenticity.

One of the key themes of the show is the battle between justice and politics. The team is often faced with political pressure to resolve a case quickly or to secure a high-profile conviction to boost their own careers. However, they are also passionate about seeking justice for the victims of the crimes they investigate, and often go against the wishes of those in positions of power in order to do what is right.

Peter Stone is a complex character who is driven by a desire for justice, but also carries a heavy burden from his family history. His father was a well-known defense attorney who represented many high-profile clients, including some who were clearly guilty. Peter is determined to make a difference in his role as a prosecutor, and he often has to grapple with the pressure of his name and the expectations that come with it.

Antonio Dawson is a former Detective who brings his street smarts and investigative skills to the team. He is often seen interviewing witnesses and suspects, and he has a real talent for getting people to talk. His history with the Chicago Police Department sometimes puts him at odds with his colleagues, but he is committed to making sure that the right person is held accountable for the crimes he investigates.

Laura Nagel is a tough Assistant State's Attorney who is not afraid to speak her mind. She often clashes with Peter, who she sees as a privileged outsider, but the two of them work well together as a team. Laura brings a much-needed dose of realism and practicality to the investigations, and she is always willing to go the extra mile to get a conviction.

One of the strengths of Chicago Justice is the way it seamlessly weaves together different parts of the criminal justice system. The team works closely with the Chicago Police Department, and episodes often feature guest appearances from characters from other Chicago-based shows in Dick Wolf's franchise, such as Chicago PD and Chicago Fire. This creates a sense of continuity and familiarity for fans of the other shows, but also allows the series to stand on its own as a compelling legal drama.

Overall, Chicago Justice is a well-crafted legal drama with complex characters and storylines that keep viewers engaged. The show's focus on the battle between justice and politics, as well as its use of real Chicago locations, gives the series a unique edge that sets it apart from other legal dramas on television. While the show was ultimately cancelled after one season, it remains a strong addition to Dick Wolf's impressive body of work.

Chicago Justice is a series that is currently running and has 1 seasons (13 episodes). The series first aired on March 1, 2017.
