NBC is previewing Suits: L.A., a spinoff of the 2011 legal drama Suits that ran for nine seasons.

The network has released the first trailer for “Suits: LA” introducing “the mighty” Ted Black (Stephen Amell), an East Coast lawyer who relocates to California, and shows the firm’s competitive “co-heads of entertainment,” Rick Dodson (Bryan Greenberg) and Erica Rollins (Lex Scott Davis). The preview also teases the return of Gabriel Macht, who portrayed Harvey Specter in the original series.  As of press time, Macht (as Specter) will appear in three episodes of the spinoff series.

The official description of the pilot reads: “His firm is at a crisis point, and in order to survive he must embrace a role he held in contempt his entire career. Ted is surrounded by a stellar group of characters who test their loyalties to both Ted and each other while they can’t help but mix their personal and professional lives. All of this is going on while events from years ago slowly unravel that led Ted to leave behind everything and everyone he loved.”

Josh McDermitt and Troy Winbush also star in the series, which premieres Feb. 23 on NBC.  See the trailer for Suits: L.A – HERE.
