Check out these gripping legal thrillers which were made into movies

3. Being a lawyer may be a pretty straight and boring profession in real life, but thanks to the thriller genre, legal tales have become a gripping form of fiction. Here is a couple of classic legal thrillers that have made it onto the big screen. Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow Adapted into a 1990 movie starring Harrison Ford, Presumed Innocent is an absorbing legal thriller that has become an international bestseller. Rusty Sabich is a prosecutor who suddenly finds himself accused of the rape and murder of a woman he has been having an affair with. While he works to clear his name, he finds himself delving deep into a world of dark secrets, corruption and deceit. Rusty must uncover the truth to prove his innocence, but he is quickly running out of people he can trust. The Lincoln Lawyer by Michael Connelly Despite the slightly presidential title, the Lincoln Lawyer in question has gained his name by working out of the back of his Lincoln Town car. The book was the subject of a 2011 movie starring Matthew McConaughy and focuses on Mickey Haller, who makes his living defending a raft of questionable clients.

5. When he finally lands a plum case in the form of a Beverly Hills playboy accused of assaulting a woman, Haller thinks his lottery numbers have come up. It’s finally a high-paying client and what Haller considers to be a pretty easy case to win. However, it turns out to be anything but and when the threat starts to creep closer to home, Haller soon realizes this is more a case of life and death – literally.
