The Other Truth is a 2011 Hong Kong television legal drama serial produced by Amy Wong and TVB. The drama centers on a group of young barristers and solicitors working in Clayton Hau Chamber and Wallace Cheuk & Co. Solicitors, two fictional law firms in Central, Hong Kong. The Other Truth focuses on ambiguous criminal and civil cases with disputable truths, highlighting the lawyers' strive for impartiality and blind justice.
The drama is Hong Kong's sixth highest-rating serial drama of 2011, and received five top five nominations at the 2011 TVB Anniversary Awards, including Best Drama, Best Supporting Actress (Aimee Chan, Natalie Tong, Helen Ma), and My Favourite Male Character (Ruco Chan).
Does every verdict reveal the truth? Watch the court room drama unfold as a group of very individual attorneys are brought together in complex legal proceedings and each lawyer reveals their own story.
Barrister Keith Lau's (Ruco Chan) ambition knows no limits. He will do everything he can in order to win a case, even if it means putting himself at risk.
