Senior partner at Pearson Darby Specter, Harvey Specter is considered by some to be the best closer in New York City. Naturally, his career and reputation were built by not necessarily playing nice, or always by the rules. He employs a shoot-from-the-hip style whether pursuing a favorable judgement or a beautiful woman. Harvey is confident and usually says what's on his mind. Some believe he is selfish and cares only for his name and not for others. He is, as the stereotype goes, a big-city lawyer.Specter may be smooth and not always 100-percent on the moral up and up, but he is quick-witted and quite intelligent. Before graduating fifth in his class from Harvard Law School, he worked in the firm's mailroom, where his pluck and smarts caught the professional eye of boss and mentor Jessica Pearson.After graduating from law school, he followed the recommendation of Pearson and worked as an assistant district attorney before finally going to work at Pearson Hardman, where he quickly rose up the ranks. His family history is somewhat marked by disfunction and hurt, so it's not a great surprise that he most keeps people at a distance in his personal as well as professional life.
