„Law & Order: Los Angeles“ folgt den Detectives Rex Winters (Skeet Ulrich) und Tomas „TJ“ Jarusalski (Corey Stoll) bei ihren Ermittlungen in der vielfältigen Stadt der Engel. Als Mitglieder der Elite-Einheit für Raub und Mord des LAPD ist Winters ein geradliniger Ex-Marine mit einer ebenso sturen wie klaren Weltsicht, während „TJ“, der Sohn eines Oscar-prämierten polnischen Kameramanns, die Schattenseiten des Hollywood-Glamours nur zu gut kennt. Staatsanwalt Morales (Alfred Molina) ist ein sarkastischer Realist, der moralische Rechtschaffenheit zwar theoretisch gutheißt, sie aber im harten Alltag für nutzlos hält. Obwohl er weiß, wie man sein öffentliches Image und die politische Kulisse manipuliert, ist er im Gerichtssaal ein knallharter Ankläger, der für Gerechtigkeit lebt.
