Mickey faces a fight for freedom as The Lincoln Lawyer returns

- WORDS: JEN PHARO

The Lincoln Lawyer is back - and this time, Mickey Haller is fighting to clear his own name.

In the fourth season of Netflix's hit drama, Mickey (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) has been accused of murdering his former client, Sam Scales, whose body is discovered in the back of Mickey's Lincoln car.

When "Death Row" Dana Berg (Constance Zimmer) is assigned as prosecutor, Mickey turns to his closest allies for help - including his ex-wife Maggie McPherson.

Joint showrunners Ted Humphrey and Dailyn Rodriguez explains: "Dana Berg is somebody Mickey and Maggie have a history with - and it's not very positive for either of them.

She's earned her name the hard way, by giving no quarter and taking no prisoners. She's a true believer who has the skill and smarts to put anyone away - and this season, she's turned those skills on Mickey."
