Suitsfollows a group of lawyers at a prestigious law firm, dealing with high-stakes cases and personal drama. But one thing that stands out about the show is its approach to the law. WhileSuitsis based on legal concepts, it doesn’t always stick to the real legal procedures. In fact, it sometimes stretches the truth and bends the rules to keep the story exciting and unpredictable.
On the same subject, in a past interview, Patrick J. Adams also shared howSuitssometimes bends the rules just to make the plotline more exciting.
How far willSuitsgo to make its story exciting?
Suitsquickly became a fan favorite due to its clever characters, and dramatic storylines. However, over the years, some fans have wondered just how far the show is willing to go to keep things exciting and entertaining. In an interview withLarry King, actorPatrick J. Adamswho played Mike Ross on the show shed some light on how the show strikes a balance between reality and drama.
While the characters onSuitsdeal with complex legal cases, Adams explained that the show doesn’t always stick to the strict details of real legal procedures. He admitted“I think there are a few moments in our show where we’ve even almost changed the US Constitution to support a plotline.”This humorous remark shows just how far the show was willing to stretch the truth to keep the audience hooked.
The show doesn’t have the luxury of relying on real lawyers to consult every legal detail. Instead, the actors learn the basics of legal terminology and concepts, picking up knowledge as they go. While it’s not a completely accurate representation of how the law works, the show focuses on telling a compelling story. The legal world is just a backdrop for exploring the characters and their relationships.
This creative flexibility allows the actors to bring something fresh to their roles. The show’s writers and directors trust the cast to improvise and add their own touch to scenes, making the dialogue feel more genuine and natural. As Adams put it, the team encourages actors to experiment, finding ways to improve the scene without losing the essence of the story.

As Adams pointed out, some of the more dramatic cases inSuitswould take years to unfold in real life, but the show condenses the timeline for the sake of excitement. It’s not about the accuracy of the legal process; it’s about creating emotional stakes that resonate with the audience.
In the end,Suitsproves that the excitement of a story doesn’t always have to be rooted in reality. By bending the rules, when necessary, the show delivers compelling drama that keeps viewers coming back for more, even if it means breaking a few legal norms along the way.
Patrick J. Adams opened up about leavingSuits
After seven successful seasons, Patrick J. Addams decided it was time to leaveSuits. In an interview withThe Hollywood Reporter, the actor explained why he made this decision. He shared that his character had reached a point where his story felt complete. By Season 7, Mike had worked his way up to becoming a qualified lawyer, and he was about to marry the woman he loved. Adams felt that if he kept playing Mike in the same story, his characterwould no longer feel special.
The actor believed Mike had achieved everything he set out to do, and continuing his story wouldn’t have the same impact. Another important reason for Adams’ decision was his personal life. After marrying actress Troian Bellisario, he wanted to spend more time with his family.

He had spent seven years playing Mike Ross, and while he was worried about disappointing fans, he hoped they would understand his decision.
