10. Mike's Criminal Record

After serving time for fraud, Mike’s return to legal work is far-fetched. In real life, a criminal record would prevent him from working in any legal capacity, even at a nonprofit clinic. His involvement would jeopardize the reputation of any firm willing to hire him. The show treats his redemption arc as an emotional victory, but it disregards the practical consequences of his conviction. A more realistic depiction would have focused on Mike rebuilding his life in a different field while grappling with the fallout of his actions.
