Becki Newton and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo in The Lincoln Lawyer

The trailer of The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 just dropped and picks up in the aftermath of the discovery of a dead body in the trunk of Mickey Haller’s (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) car. It’s a former client, a conman called Sam Scales (Christopher Thornton), and Mickey’s charged with his murder. Of course, he hasn’t done it, but whoever’s framed him has done a pretty good job, as he soon finds out that it gets increasingly difficult for him to prove his innocence. Is this going to be the case that Mickey Haller cannot win? That’s what we’ll find out when The Lincoln Lawyer returns to Netflix on February 5, 2026.

In the trailer, Mickey’s team, including first ex-wife Maggie (Neve Campbell), second ex-wife and colleague Lorna Crane (Becki Newton), investigator Cisco (Angus Sampson), driver Izzy (Jazz Raycole), rally behind him to figure out their game plan to get to the bottom of the last con that Sam was running. But with the prosecution making it difficult for them to have a fair trial, it may be easier said than done for Mickey to walk out of this mess unscathed.

Which book in the Lincoln Lawyer series is Season 4 based on?

The Lincoln Lawyer is based on Michael Connelly’s bestselling novel series by the same name and Season 4 is based on the sixth book, The Law of Innocence. Like the previous seasons, this time too, it will be a 10-episode run, with all dropping on February 5 for a binge fest for fans of the series. Although Netflix is yet to announce a fifth season, considering that there are 8 novels, one of which was used for the 2011 film, there are at least 3 more that can be adapted, so it would be safe to assume that the show will return.
