Ace Attorney, known in Japan as Gyakuten Saiban (逆転裁判), is a series of visual novels/adventure games in which players assume the role of a defense attorney in a fictional courtroom setting, which is based on the Japanese legal system, to strive to find their clients "not guilty" using investigation, evidence, and cross-examination to prove their case.

The first three games in the series, originally released only in Japan between 2001 and 2004 for the Game Boy Advance, have been ported to the Nintendo DS for worldwide release. The series has been developed from the ground up starting with the fourth game.

The first three games feature and are sometimes referred to by the eponymous main protagonist, Phoenix Wright. The fourth game, set seven years after the end of the third game, introduces Apollo Justice as a new protagonist who takes over from Phoenix. Both of them return as main protagonists in the fifth game of the main series. Miles Edgeworth, a key character from the first trilogy, is featured in two special games set between the third and fourth games.
