The Lincoln Lawyer, Netflix's hit series, created a buzz after it was renewed for Season 3 last year. Netflix has announced the season will drop on October 17, 2024.
Lincoln Lawyer is based on the books penned by the laureled author Michael Connelly. Thus far, the show has adapted two volumes of his books — The Brass Verdict and The Fifth Witness. Season 3 is set to uncover the events of his fifth book — The Gods of Guilt.
The season will return with the protagonist, defense attorney Mickey Haller (played by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) and his high-profile cases as he navigates various tangled webs including his clients and complicated love life.
When will Season 3 of The Lincoln Lawyer be released?
The Lincoln Lawyer's third installment is set to be released later this year on October 17, 2024. Although there were speculations of it being released next year, Netflix put it all to rest after announcing the official date.
Unlike Season 2 which had two parts, all 10 episodes of Season 3 are set to drop at the same time globally. This is good news for viewers and fans of the show.

What is the plot for Season 3 of The Lincoln Lawyer?
As mentioned earlier, Season 3 will be covering the fifth installment of Michael Connelley's book, The Gods of Guilt. The plot is set to pick up from where it left off in Season 2: Justice served for Lisa Trammell (played by Lana Parrilla) as she was declared not guilty.
However, the finale of Season 2 also revealed a major plot twist involving a murder Lisa committed. Since her name wasn't included in the cast list, it can be assumed that she's been arrested for her crimes. Nonetheless, a new season brings a new case for Mickey Haller who is going to be dealing with a new mind-bending case.
Perhaps this is the case for Haller due to its complexity and how personal it is to him. Season 3 is set to see the protagonist take on the case of his murdered former client who was a prostitute.
Haller was the one who gave her a fresh start, but per Connelley's book, he feared to have been a cause of her death. Determined, angry, emotional, and hungry for justice, Haller could be expected to do everything possible to put the criminals responsible for her demise behind bars.
