According to Netflix’s 2025 promotional lineup, The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 was not among the titles highlighted for the year. This absence suggests that the fourth season may not arrive until sometime in 2026. Nonetheless, as filming commenced in February 2025, there remains a slim chance that the legal drama could return by late 2025. The previous season’s October 2024 premiere sets a precedent for a release window that may once again shift slightly forward.

What kind of trouble is Mickey Haller stepping into in the next season?

Season 4 of The Lincoln Lawyer will reportedly feature ten episodes and will be adapted from The Law of Innocence, a novel by author Michael Connelly, who based the main character on two real individuals. While specific plot points remain under wraps, the new season is expected to explore the fallout of the explosive Season 3 finale. With major characters now dead and law enforcement uncovering troubling evidence from Mickey Haller’s trunk, the legal drama appears poised to return with high stakes and intense courtroom tension.

The confirmed cast list does not include Yaya DaCosta, who portrayed prosecutor Angela Freeman and served as a romantic interest to Mickey Haller in Season 3. Although she played a central role across two seasons, her absence from the renewal announcement does not imply a permanent exit. With the plot circling around serious accusations against Haller, a temporary distance for Freeman would be contextually sound. As the gavel inches closer to falling on Season 4, anticipation continues to rise for the next chapter in Mickey Haller’s ever-turbulent legal journey.
