The final batch of episodes from The Lincoln Lawyer’s second season are now available on Netflix, completing the series’ adaptation of Michael Connelly’s novel The Fifth Witness.

Naturally, fans will already be starting to think about whether a third season could be on the cards, and whether Manuel Garcia-Rulfo’s Mickey Haller will be back on another case.

The show’s second season was confirmed just a month after the first debuted, but have we got any news on a third season yet, when would it debut on Netflix and who would be in the cast?

It hasn’t yet been confirmed whether a third season of The Lincoln Lawyer is on the way, but the series has repeatedly jumped to the top of the Netflix charts upon the release of a batch of new episodes.

Given that there are also a host of Lincoln Lawyer novels from Michael Connelly still to be adapted, we would therefore expect that a third season could certainly be on the cards.

We will keep this page updated as and when any further information is released regarding the future of The Lincoln Lawyer.

When would The Lincoln Lawyer season 3 be released?

While we wait for confirmation as to the future of The Lincoln Lawyer, it’s difficult to say how long it would be until a third is released.

However, looking back at the gap between seasons 1 and 2, we didn’t have to wait too long – with just over a year between seasons being released.

Of course, delays due to the actors’ and writers’ strikes could impact production, but for now we would imagine that if the show is renewed it will be back on our screens in the second half of 2024. We’ll keep this page updated once any more concrete news emerges.
