In fictional series El Juicio, Miguel Portillo (Eugenio Derbez) and his teenage daughter Andrea (Karla Gaytán) are fighting for justice after a hideous crime was committed against her. In an ill-equipped legal system, with powerful opponents on the other side, their battle becomes more of an excruciating war.

Quick take: After learning about the crime his son, Lorenzo (Iker Solano), committed, business magnate Raúl Huerta (Pedro Alonso) tries to settle the matter with hush money. To his surprise, the Portillos turn the offer down, prompting him to leverage his power and influence to guard his family’s name. Distressed, Andrea and Miguel initiate legal proceedings against Lorenzo only to face a perplexing legal maze where bureaucracy and corruption favour the elite.
