A streetwise attorney, born and raised in New Jersey in a close Italian-American family, makes the transition from the state prosecutor's office in Trenton to a posh New York City law firm, where she must defend her clients while surviving her colleagues' skepticism.
Pablo Schreiber as Luke Aronson, a lawyer at the firm who was Martina's love interest, and Stephanie March as Natalie Minka, an established lawyer at the firm who is turned off by Martina's style, were originally cast as series regulars but only appeared in the pilot.[11][12][13] They were replaced by Polaha and Echikunwoke, respectively.[6]

In Canada, the show has been picked up by Global Television Network, where it aired on the same night as the American broadcast, but at different times depending on the region and simultaneous substitution opportunities. In Portugal, it premiered on TVSéries on October 18, 2012.
The show was met with mixed reviews from critics, with a score of 43 out of 100 based on 18 reviews from Metacritic.[20] Despite stating that it "sounds from a bare-bones description as if it were a cloddish comedy that deserves immediate cancellation," Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times added that "if the show's writers can deepen the characters, Made in Jersey just might continue to be worth watching."[21]
