Eli meets with an attorney to represent for a disbarment hearing. The attorney is played by Alan Rachins who played Douglas Brackman in L.A. Law (1986). The glass behind him shows the name 'McKinley & Brackman - Attorneys at Law', indicating that the character is still practicing law. McKinley was a play on the firm on L.A. Law- the original firm was initially titled McKenzie, Brackman, and Chaney. Rachins' character is credited as "Familiar Lawyer". L.A. Law was a well known legal series over 8 seasons, so the lawyers were familiar to many viewers.
