You’re still the head writer

This originally got in the wrong place so I’ll repeat it here.

…and the producers have told you that you can bring on ONE new character.  Not a past character/actor but a brand new character.  And you can give them a name.

Who would it be (not the actor, the character) and why?

Jessica Lowell – a brilliant British 30-something attorney who goes up against EJ on a big trial and beats him soundly.  They have a very antagonistic beginning because she always seems to be one-bettering him at every turn and his ego is taking a beating.  But he finds out she has a dark side and learns she is one of the head attorneys for a big crime boss (maybe the one that Arianna is actually trying to find, not Victor).  That intrigues him and they begin to get closer.
