| | Michael Clayton (GEORGE CLOONEY) is an in-house fixer at one of the largest corporate law firms in New York. A former criminal prosecutor, Clayton takes care of Kenner, Bach & Ledeens dirtiest work at the behest of the firms co-founder Marty Bach (SYDNEY POLLACK).
Though burned out and hardly content with his job as a fixer, his divorce, a failed business venture and mounting debt have left Clayton inextricably tied to the firm.
At U/North, meanwhile, the career of litigator Karen Crowder (TILDA SWINTON) rests on the multi-million dollar settlement of a class action suit that Claytons firm is leading to a seemingly successful conclusion.
But when Kenner Bachs brilliant and guilt-ridden attorney Arthur Edens (TOM WILKINSON) sabotages the U/North case, Clayton faces the biggest challenge of his career and his life.
