Synopsis
How did a great lawyer who came to represent important causes emerge out of the racist, paternalistic, and self-perpetuating establishment of rural Georgia in the 1950s? What about Tommy Malone led him to take on the power structure in his community and begin representing people who were injured against prominent doctors and hospitals? There is nothing specific in his background to cause anyone to predict he'd become one of the first white lawyers in the Deep South to represent the black community and reach out to a struggling handful of African American attorneys and ease their passage into the mainstream. Somehow, this young man went on to become one of the greatest trial lawyers of his generation, representing those who were catastrophically injured and the families whose loved ones needlessly lost their lives and futures due to the failures of others. The answers are varied, but undoubtedly, Malone sensed a "guiding hand" directing him to the good.
