Now that Mike is officially recognized as a lawyer and has accepted Harvey's offer to return to the firm, the team is back together again at Pearson Specter Litt - each dealing with their own struggles as they adjust to a new world order without Jessica.

Season 6 begins immediately following the events of the shocking Season 5 cliffhanger that left Mike behind bars. After signing a plea deal to spare his colleagues at Pearson Specter Litt, Mike will be confronted with the harsh realities of prison life as he starts his two-year sentence.

Season 5 of the legal drama opens with a long flashback about what happened since the previous season's finale, as told by Harvey to his therapist. Mike and Rachel are engaged but are keeping it a secret from almost everyone; Donna starts working for Louis, who still thinks she's going to eventually go back to Harvey; Harvey isn't doing so well after Donna's departure, and Jessica steps in to make sure he doesn't lose his focus. As the firm takes on new cases that sometimes hit too close to home, Harvey has to do a lot of growing up in Donna's absence and Mike finally faces the consequences of pretending to be a lawyer.

The fourth season finds Mike starting a new career as an investment banker. However, he soon finds himself in an awkward situation when a takeover battle pits him against businessman Logan Sanders and Harvey, who represents Logan and his company. The fight is complicated by Mike's personal animosity toward Sanders, who once had an affair with Rachel; and, later, when the SEC investigates Mike and Harvey for possible collusion. On top of all that, Mike and Rachel's relationship hits a rough patch. In other events, Louis enters into a shady deal with financier Charles Forstman; Donna faces serious legal problems; and Jessica navigates tricky issues with on-again, off-again lover Jeff Malone.

Season 3 premieres with a shift in the dynamics at the firm. After merging with a top British firm, Harvey is at odds with his boss and mentor, Jessica Pearson, who forces Mike to do something he never thought possible - betray Harvey. Meanwhile, things with Mike and Rachel Zane get more complicated after Mike finally reveals his secret that he never actually went to Harvard - and they cross a dangerous line that can never be uncrossed.

In the sophomore season of the critically acclaimed drama, Mike's future hangs in the balance when a friend threatens to expose him. Harvey attempts to guard his secret from the firm's top suit, Jessica Pearson, while she faces even bigger problems when the other half of Pearson Hardman reemerges on the scene.

Harvey Specter, as one of Manhattan's top corporate lawyers sets out to recruit a new hotshot associate and hires the only guy that impresses him - Mike Ross, a brilliant but unmotivated college dropout. Though he isn't actually a lawyer, this legal prodigy has the book smarts of a Harvard law grad and the street smarts of a hustler. However, in order to serve justice and save their jobs, both these unconventional thinkers must continue the charade.
