11 Reasons Lucca Quinn Is Our New Favorite Good Wife Character

She's the queen of side-eye

In a few short weeks on The Good Wife, Lucca Quinn (Cush Jumbo) went from Alicia's (Julianna Margulies) fellow bond court attorney to drinking buddy to new partner. And we'd probably partner up with her too if we were in Alicia's perfectly tailored skirt suits. The scrappy, witty and equally as fashionable bar attorney is a breath of fresh air on the CBS drama and we cannot get enough of her. Here are 11 reasons Lucca Quinn is our new Queen Bee.

1. She looks out for you.
