Nelle Porter is a fictional character on the Fox television show Ally McBeal. She is portrayed by actress Portia de Rossi and appears in Seasons 2 through to Season 5 of the show. A Boston-based lawyer, Nelle joins the fictional law firm of Cage & Fish with the ambition of someday becoming a partner. Romantically involved with partner John Cage during Seasons 2 and 3, she appears in future Seasons mainly as a source of comic relief. She is also notable for her close friendship with Ling Woo, one of the show's most remarked-upon characters.[1][2][3][4][5]
