TV show description:
The fourth series in Dick Wolf’s Chicago franchise, the Chicago Justice TV show follows the prosecutors and investigators who make up the State’s Attorney’s team. In order to pursue justice, these professionals must negotiate the choppy waters of city politics.
Armed with a resolute respect for the law, they work the Windy City’s most consequential cases. Often under intense media scrutiny, the team must be mindful of both prevailing community sentiment and political power grabs.
The ambitious Peter Stone (Philip Winchester) is the dogged Deputy Chief of the Special Prosecutions Bureau. To him, the quest for justice is more than a job; it’s a purpose.
A single-minded man, Stone often goes head-to-head with Mark Jefferies (Carl Weathers). As Cook County State’s Attorney, Mark must be politically minded. While his mantra is that a good prosecutor gives the jury and the public a well-defined narrative, Peter believes the law is not always best served by crisp sound bites.
Despite their differences, Stone and Jefferies aspire to usher in a new age of justice to the City by the Lake. Their team includes the ardent Assistant State’s Attorney, Anna Valdez (Monica Barbaro). Still new enough to be malleable, Anna will bend the rules to get the proper results.
There’s also the tenacious Laura Nagel (Joelle Carter). This empathetic State’s Attorney Investigator looks at her cases through the victims’ eyes.
Finally, there is Chief Investigator Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda). A former by-the-book detective in the Chicago P.D.’s intelligence unit, Antonio worked his way up to the State’s Attorney’s office.
Series Finale:

What do you think? Do you like the Chicago Justice TV show? Should it have been cancelled or renewed for a second season on NBC? Tell us.
I wasn’t sure about it at first, but really started to love it by the end of the season. They should have renewed for a second season.
Loved the show! Very good writing, excellent acting, etc. Was looking forward to the new season. It seems that new intelligent shows are cancelled. Maybe some other network will do something. It was really the only Chicago series I watched.
My husband and I love the show. All wonderful actors especially Seda. We loved the show that we kept all season so we could return to watch them again. Good thing we have 2 tivo’s!! SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CANCELLED. CAN WE MAKE A DEAL……
Chicago Justice was a great addition to the Chicago group. It should not have been canceled
No Chicago justice should never been cancelled, in the first place why was it? it just came on
I so love this show. WHY are you taken so many great shows. I will have to go to others stations and boycott you all. Don’t you think you could have the PEOPLE WHO WATCHED Your STATION SHOULD HAVE A VOTE .WE DO KEEP YOU IN HAVING A JOB!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! I loved the show
NBC just broke the Chicago best series. Hope they bring back Chicago Justice to the family.
Please reconsider bringing back Chicago Justice for another season! I LOVED the show and all the characters… I also liked the way that Chicago Fire, Chicago PD and Chicago Justice intertwined between episodes.
I do too. I was watching Chicago Med and when Chicago Justice came on I watched it and loved it. As a result I started watching Chicago Fire and PD. So had to look forward to all of the Chicago programs. Please don’t take this one off!!!
I can’t believe they cancelled it. I thought it was a excellent show. Please bring back Chicago Justice!!!
Crazy that it was cancelled. I loved the show. Watching repeats.
Bring back Chicago Justice Now!
Really liked Chicago Justice — sorry to see that it has been cancelled. It and Chicago Fire are my favorites.
Should be taking off. Using the Lord’s name in vain!!! First time on regular tv. That shouldn’t have happened. Turned the show off as soon as we heard it, without finishing the show. Sha.e on NBC.
It’s a shame that Chicago Justice was canceled. I really liked it, and it didn’t have a chance with only 13 episodes. I hope for a renewal is reconsidered, but if not, Antonio better come back to Chicago PD and I hope they find a spot for Stone because I love his character and the actor that plays him.
