Margaret Allison Hart got a little close
Rena Sofer makes her first appearance on "NCIS" in Season 7, Episode 11 ("Ignition") (via IMDb (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1567044/)). Initially introduced as M. Allison Hart, the lawyer of Victor Tillman (Marcus Giamatti), it is quickly revealed that Sofer's character is going to be a continual problem as a result of her representation of Colonel Merton Bell (Robert Patrick), a wealthy mercenary who poses a threat to the NCIS team. Hart later returns in Episode 14 ("Masquerade") and picks up a pro-bono case involving Gibbs with the sole intention of causing problems for the NCIS team. During the investigation, Hart takes efforts to get as close to Gibbs as possible, even going so far as to inquire about who cuts his hair.
After the NCIS team manages to prevent a major terrorist attack, Gibbs returns home and is surprised to find Hart sitting in his living room. The two briefly argue, but the arguments turn to aggressive flirtations when Gibbs points out that Hart is only taking cases involving him. While Hart calls the remark "conceited," she doesn't appear too eager to leave the home of the special agent. As the two get closer and closer, they both glance at each other's lips just as the episode ends. A romantic relationship between the two is later alluded to. While Hart proves to be an important ally for Gibbs in dealing with the Hernandez crime family, it seems somewhat out of character for Gibbs to make such advances on an adversary.
"NCIS" fans on the main r/NCIS (https://www.reddit.com/r/NCIS/) subreddit would seem to agree.

I hated that lawyer that always called Gibbs Mr. Gibbs." Responses to the post were mostly in agreement. U/oceanjulep (https://www.reddit.com/r/NCIS/comments/qip1in/comment/hilk8qn/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) responded that they found the whole storyline "odd" and added, "I really couldn't figure out why Gibbs would let her get anywhere close to him!"
