We're just under two months away from the return of Suits Season 2.

What can viewers of this USA favorite expect from the January 17th return episode and beyond? The network has released the following trio of episodes descriptions, which tease new lawsuits, a new rival and a complicated relationship for at least one character...

January 17: "Blind-Sided" -- Harvey and Mike take on a criminal suit that hits close to home for Mike, who struggles to separate his personal feelings from the facts of the case.

January 24: "Blood in the Water" -- The war with Daniel may be over, but the battle has left Pearson Hardman vulnerable, and Harvey must protect the firm from a rival whose attack seems as personal as it is professional. Louis and Mike are forced to pay the price for previous actions.

January 31: "The Strong Survive" -- Harvey goes head to head against Robert Zane, Rachel's father, on a gender discrimination case that forces Rachel to confront her complicated relationship with her Dad.
