Who stars in Justice on Netflix?
Fatima Al Taei stars as the show's main character, Farah.
Farah is a lawyer who is establishing herself as an independent female barrister.
Speaking to Gulf News Tabloid, Al Taei said: “Farah is a very ambitious girl and she is looking forward to becoming a successful lawyer like her father. She has a lot of what I would call humility, I personally learned a lot from her.
“She never backs down, she is very determined and she knows what she wants, she has her own vision and is very clear on the path she will take when she needs to get something accomplished, and I really enjoyed those aspects of the character.”
Joining her is Mansour Al Feeli who plays Farah’s father, Hassan in Justice.
Al Feeli said: “The words used by lawyers when they are in the court is not like the normal words that we often use, because they are talking in a way that is connected with the law and the language of the law is different.”
Other cast members include Emirati actor Abudalla bin Haider, Syrian actress Neven Madi, Lebanese actor Carlos Azar and Saudi actor Khaled Al Buraiki.
What is Justice on Netflix about?
Justice on Netflix is inspired by American series L.A Law which aired on NBC from 1986 to 1994 and was written by Emmy Award-winning US producer and writer, William Finkelstein.
Justice follows the story of Farah (played by Fatima Al Taei) who goes against her family's wishes and makes it on her own as a defence attorney instead of joining her father’s law firm.
The series also depicts real-life cases in the Islamic courts of Abu Dhabi.
According to Gulf News, the producers worked closely with the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department to ensure authenticity.
Al Taei said: “It is a big responsibility because this is based on true stories.
“We had the chance to shoot the series inside the court, which made it fascinating, we met with the lawyers and just being able to be there made it a whole different kind of experience.
“The series took longer to finish than what is usually produced here because we wanted to get things right.”
Michael Garin, chief executive officer at Image Nation said: “This has been done already in every major country elsewhere, we are just late to the party.”
“This is compelling drama, it is an opportunity to see a part of the world that many people around the world are interested in.
“The show follows a template that is popular all over the world… It’s what everybody loves, it’s got every element that the audience wants, whether they are here in the region, or sitting in the US, the show has an appeal.”
