Warning! This Post Contains Spoilers For The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3

Netflix's hit legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer has been a massive success thus far, and now the streamer has renewed the series for season 4. Debuting in 2022 and based on the books by Michael Connelly, The Lincoln Lawyer concerns idealistic defense attorney Mickey Haller (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), who practices out of his car and often finds himself deeply invested in the cases he's trying. Using Connelly's brilliant book series as a guide, the Netflix series has managed to capture all the humor and excitement that makes the Haller series such a compelling read.

Season 3 of The Lincoln Lawyer adapted Connelly's novel Gods of Guilt, and followed Mickey as he defends a client who is accused of killing another of his former clients, Glory Days. After uncovering the massive conspiracy behind all the deaths throughout season 3, Mickey becomes embroiled in his own shocking twist ending. The body of former client Sam Scales winds up in his trunk, and the police are looking for answers. This means season 4 will adapt Connelly's The Law of Innocence, and now Netflix has given the show the green-light.
