Overview

The Lyon's Den is a television series centered on a character named John Jack Turner. Turner is described as a maverick scion who belongs to an American political dynasty. Initially, he is content working at a small pro-bono law clinic located in Washington, D.C. His professional path is influenced by George Riley, a longtime friend and colleague who encourages him to take a different direction. To ensure the survival of the pro-bono clinic, Turner reluctantly agrees to accept a new role as the managing partner at the sponsoring law firm known as Lyon, LaCrosse, and Levine.
