The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 will officially arrive on Netflix in 2026. And this time, it's our beloved man of law, 'Mickey Haller', who will face his toughest challenge yet when the brilliant defense attorney becomes the defendant in a shocking murder trial. The buzz around the Netflix legal drama has been intense after the streaming giant released first-look photos and confirmed new cast members.

When will The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 be released and where?

The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 will premiere on Netflix on February 5, 2026. The makers unveiled the first look at Season 4 and the new addition to the cast of the much-awaited show. The legal drama's first glimpse also gave us an insight into what's to come in next season, including the trouble 'Mickey Haller' will find himself in.

Mickey Haller becomes the defendant in The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4

For the first three seasons, The Lincoln Lawyer followed 'Mickey Haller' as he defended Los Angeles' most desperate clients from his Lincoln Continental. However, The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 will turn the tables completely. The Season 4 official logline confirms that our star lawyer will face his greatest case when he's accused of murdering former client, 'Sam Scales'.

'Mickey' is further cornered, as he cannot afford the exorbitant USD 5 million bail set by a vindictive judge. The defense attorney must plan his next move now and build his own defense strategy while clearing his name from a brutal murder charge. And that starts with 'Mickey' electing to defend himself, creating the ultimate test of his legal genius and personal survival.

Meet the new cast members and characters

The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 will introduce Constance Zimmer as 'Dana Berg', the ruthless prosecutor nicknamed "Death" on the Los Angeles courthouse circuit. Known for her fierce courtroom presence, 'Dana' will be the formidable opponent to 'Mickey'. Constance's character brings intensity to the legal battles ahead. Along with the strong prosecution, the show will also see the return of Becki Newton, Jazz Raycole, and Angus Sampson. New additions feature Cobie Smulders, Sasha Alexander, Krista Warner, Elliott Gould, and Emmanuelle Chriqui. 

What to expect from The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4?

The plot details of The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 are based on Michael Connelly's 2020 novel, The Law of Innocence. The story revolves around the murder of our protagonist's former client, 'Sam Scales', with life without parole if convicted at stake. According to reports, Season 4 will have 10 episodes in total, with each episode becoming more dramatic than the previous one.

Production timeline and filming

The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 wrapped its filming around June 2025, with the production spanning several months of intensive shooting. Netflix confirmed completion of post-production, allowing the streaming platform to finalise the February 5, 2026, release date. The months-long production schedule enabled the creators to deliver a complete season simultaneously.

David E. Kelly created the series and has spent considerable effort adapting Michael Connelly's novel for the screen. The scale of this season expands significantly with new locations, larger courtroom sequences, and the dramatic reversal that places Garcia-Rulfo's character in the defendant's chair rather than behind the defense table.
