Geriatric nurse Christina is in danger of losing custody of eight-year-old Marie after the death of her wife. When Eva enters the ring for Marie and Christina, the lawyer has no idea who she will be dealing with on the other side.
Eva's client Monika Reiter is the mother of one of Lili's classmates. When the marriage fails, the problems of Hans, who is being bullied by a schoolyard bully, play a key role. Eva wants to sue the inactive school management.
The lawyer with a heart not only deals with the maintenance obligations of a father who has gone into hiding, but also interferes somewhat overambitiously in parenting issues in her patchwork family.
Renate and Anne, both around 70 years old, have a letter of termination in their mailbox. Their landlord, the wealthy building contractor Ortlieb, is claiming personal use for his adult son Peter. Eva spontaneously agrees to support them.
