Netflix has officially locked in the highly anticipated return of The Lincoln Lawyer. Season 4 of the hit legal drama will premiere Thursday, February 5, 2026, bringing Mickey Haller back to the screen—this time as the one sitting at the defense table for murder.
Inspired by Michael Connelly’s bestselling novel The Law of Innocence, the new season puts Mickey (Manuel Garcia Rulfo) in the biggest fight of his life. After Season 3 ended with his shocking arrest—his former client found dead in the trunk of his own Lincoln—the attorney becomes the accused. Now, he and his team must unravel the final scam of the victim, Sam Scales (Christopher Thornton), to clear Mickey’s name and expose the setup that landed him behind bars.
And the stakes are high. Mickey’s courtroom opponent is prosecutor Dana Berg (Constance Zimmer), whose “Death Row Dana” reputation makes her both feared and formidable. Her connection to Mickey’s ex-wife Maggie (Neve Campbell) only tightens the pressure.
New Faces, New Tensions
Season 4 expands the ensemble with major additions:
- Marcus Henderson (Get Out) as Yannick Bamba, a former gang member who becomes Mickey’s unexpected protector and strategist inside jail.
- Gigi Zumbado (Heart Eyes) as Grace, a sharp and free-spirited paralegal student who steps into Mickey’s orbit through Izzy (Jazz Raycole).
- Scott Lawrence as Judge Stone, a sharp-tongued former prosecutor who doesn’t tolerate courtroom games.
- Javon Johnson as Carter Gates, a hardworking man suddenly facing a wrongful murder charge.
- Emmanuelle Chriqui as Jeanine Ferrigno, a street-smart Glendale local whose ties to the criminal world could make—or break—Mickey’s case.
- Jason O’Mara as Jack Gilroy, Maggie’s new boyfriend, whose presence only complicates the Haller family dynamics.
- Kyle Richards, Jason Butler Harner, and a cameo from chef Nancy Silverton round out this season’s Los Angeles flavor.
- Cobie Smulders in a still-undisclosed role,
- Sasha Alexander as FBI Agent Dawn Ruth,
- Constance Zimmer reprising her intense turn as Dana Berg.
