An up-and-coming attorney who has a seemingly ordinary life sees her past troubles begin to catch up with her. - Findaway World Llc
An ordinary life â¦
Leigh Collier has worked hard to build what looks like a normal life. Sheâs an up-and-coming defense attorney at a prestigious law firm in Atlanta, would do anything for her sixteen-year-old daughter, Maddy, and is managing to successfully co-parent through a pandemic after an amicable separation from her husband, Walter.
