"Conviction", focuses on young assistant district attorneys in New York as they struggle with a demanding case load that challenges their lack of experience. Although this is not a spin-off of any "Law & Order" show, this show still takes place in that same universe.
Law & Order follows a crime from two perspectives: police investigation and court prosecution. The crime is usually based on current events.
The show provides a realistic portrayal of the criminal justice system, as it explores the challenges and complexities of solving a crime and bringing the perpetrator to justice.
