They work directly in the community to find justice for their diverse clients, exploring issues of racism, poverty, and gender bias.”

In addition to the GH alum, Diggstown also stars Natasha Henstridge (Species), C. David Johnson (Street Legal), Shailene Garnett (Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments), Stacey Farber (Grace and Frankie), Brandon Oakes (Arctic Air), Dwain Murphy (Titans), and Tim Rozon (Wynonna Earp).
