| - Ellen Parsons starts as a bright and idealistic law graduate working for high-profiled attorney Patty Hewes. However she quickly evolves into clever, manipulative and revengeful lawyer, first working as an informant for the FBI, then joining the public attorney's office, followed by her brief employment at the renowned law firm Nye, Everett And Polk and finally as the head of her own law firm, Parsons and Associates. She comes from a working-class background and an abusive family. She is close to her sister Carrie Parsons and her mother Deniece Parsons. She was engaged to be married to David Connor, but after his death she had few short-lasting sexual relationships with hit-man Wes Krulik, journalist Josh Reston, fellow lawyer Sean Everett and her current lover, war-veteran Chris Sanchez. Her ethical approach to law often contradicts with Patty's less conventional ways. As her career progresses Ellen's ways begin to border with the illegal and morally questionable. The sudden shift occurs when Patty orders Ellen's murder, but she manages to survive the murder attempt and starts working as a double agent for the FBI and Hewes and Associates. Her vengeance plan is completed when she confronts Patty at gun point. After getting the confession she forgives Patty and distances herself from her. As much as she tries to stay away from Patty, she is constantly drawn to Patty's orbit. Finally Ellen decides to make a name for herself by suing Howard Erickson, a prominent corporate director with Patty's mentorship. But by the end of the case they rift apart again, because of Patty's willingness to win the case by endangering a human life. Currently she fights against her former mentor in a high-profiled case, by representing Channing McLaren.
