In an interview Peter Gallagher mentioned that to get ready for the role as Sandy Cohen he was instructed by a real life Bronx lawyer named Jeremy Schneider (criminal defense attorney). He spent countless hours with the guy to further his believability for the role as Sandy Cohen. Jeremy is a very successful New York attorney and much like Sandy Cohen, Jeremy lives with his wife and two sons! You can't help but notice that their hair and suits even look similar. Cheers to you Jeremy Schneider for preparing Sandy for such a crucial role! Can the real public defender please stand up?
