The "Suits" verdict is in: USA Network has renewed the drama for a fourth season.


The fourth season of "Suits," which chronicles the wheeling and dealing that goes on at a top New York law firm, will consist of 16 new episodes, the network said in a statement. In addition, "Suits" creator and executive producer Aaron Korsh has signed an overall deal with Universal Cable Productions, the studio behind the show, to develop new programs.


"Aaron Korsh consistently pushes the boundaries of storytelling and the series promises to deliver a provocative fourth season," USA president Chris McCumber said in the statement.


The final six episodes of "Suits'" third season arrive in early 2014, and guest stars will include swimmer Michael Phelps and Stephen Macht, the father of "Suits" actor Gabriel Macht. "Suits" also stars Gina Torres, Patrick J. Adams, Sarah Rafferty, Meghan Markle and Rick Hoffman.
