I know he isn't the worst, but for being coded as "always worse than any other lawyer onscreen" I wish to submit Bill Oakley from Better Call Saul:

I’m only a couple of episodes into Presumed Innocent, but every decision Jake Gyllenhaal has made so far as a county prosecutor (named Rusty Savage, lol) makes me yell at the tv.

I frankly don’t understand rebooting this story at ALL It’s like the film industry thinks it’s run out of innovative writers 🤦🏻‍♀️ We ALWAYS have more Creatives than we have opportunities to support them, so why *ever* reboot mediocre projects?

Lionel Hutz, Saul Goodman, Ally McBeal, Annalise Keating.

Saul Goodman is an amazing lawyer though

He is (for a guilty person) an ideal lawyer, because he is pretty good in the courtroom, but is willing to do morally questionable/illegal things to keep you out of prison.

HBO’s “The Night Of” (2016). Both lawyers in this picture qualify, but if you’ve seen it, there’s a clear answer here.

as soon as i saw this question i was sure it would be the easiest question of all time but then i couldn't call any terrible TV lawyers to mind at all. i probably blocked them out. i know my skin has been crawled. the worst i can come up with aside from the obvious criminal lawyer is rhonda perlman.

The court scenes in the Hannibal show are physically painful

Oh actually it’s probably Matt Murdock, the Daredevil show had a lot of legal content for a show that appeared to be written by someone who had only heard of lawyers third hand

The law stuff on that Bull show that was on CBS is real bad too.
