Season 2
Law, Love & Betrayal is a South African legal drama television series about a tough township lawyer who forces her way into a slick, family-owned firm in Sandton, where she finds that everyone has secrets, just like her.
Young and tough township lawyer Gugu Mabaso (Dineo Rasedile) finds her way into Gumede & Associates in Sandton.
There, she discovers that beneath its polished exterior, the firm is a twisted maze of family secrets, lies, ruthless ambition and betrayal.
As she navigates the environment, Gugu realises that like her, everyone has a hidden darkness that threatens to shatter trust within the firm.
Also starring are Nimrod Nkosi as Gatsha and Pearl Modiadie as Ayanda Gumede-Williams, Gatsha's ambitious daughter.
Other cast members include Anelisa Phewa as James Makaula and Siyabonga Sepotokele as Thabo.
The second season features several new characters, including lethal lawyer Sandra Stein. Shannon Esra returns as the formidable, take-no-prisoners lawyer she's played in several telenovelas and dramas including The Queen, The River, Gomora, The Throne and Legacy.
Shannon is joined by new cast members Sparky Xulu, who plays astute social justice lawyer Sakhile Nxusa; and Katlego Lebogang, who joins the cast as criminal lawyer Bakang Mokgotso.
In the Season 2 premiere, "Stand by What is Decided": G&A face legal and health challenges while representing a burial scheme that was scammed and lost its money.
Also, Ayanda finds herself in opposition to Nkabinde Inc's newly-appointed civil lawyer.
Law, Love & Betrayal was created by executive producer Thandi Ramathesele and produced by Izwi Multimedia.
