Saul Goodman

Saul Goodman, born as James "Jimmy" McGill, is a fictional character in the television series "Breaking Bad" and its prequel "Better Call Saul." He is a versatile criminal lawyer who represents the morally questionable side of law in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Saul is known for his flamboyant appearance with vibrant suits, catchy taglines and exaggerated theatrics.

He operates his office out of a strip-mall, flaunting his love for over-the-top advertising. His business isn't limited to legal advice; he's deeply entrenched in criminal activities himself, representing an extensive lineup of criminals. Goodman also has a lofty network of contacts, ranging from private investigators to forgers and hackers, who assist him with his convoluted cases. Despite his questionable ethics, Saul has a knack for spotting loopholes in the law and uses his services to help his clients evade the consequences of their actions.

Before breaking bad to become Saul Goodman, he was James McGill, an ambitious, struggling lawyer with a complicated relationship with his brother, a successful lawyer who doubted and discouraged his abilities. Goodman's character arc is fascinating, taking the audience through his transformation from a low-level conman to a high-powered criminals' lawyer.
