What to Know

Critics Consensus

David E. Kelley's adaptation of the The Lincoln Lawyer relies too much on quirk to paper over its lack of true novelty, but this is a reliable enough vehicle for fans of legal pulp.

It’s all entertainingly diverting, even if the series lacks the kind of existential bleakness, the self-conscious humourlessness... Go to Full Review Nina Metz Chicago Tribune 05/17/2022

No objection here if Netflix wants to provide a well-acted throwback series complete with likable anti-heroes and colorful suspects. Go to Full Review Gissane Sophia Lady Geeks Media 07/23/2023
It’s a riveting, impressive new take on Michael Connelly’s novels that’s worth watching whether you’ve read them or not. Go to Full Review Pete Vonder Haar Houston Press 09/16/2022
Developed by prolific producer David E. Kelley, <i>The Lincoln Lawyer</i> does build some steam as it goes, but the flow of the story too closely resembles the weekly procedural format that was pitched to CBS. Go to Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com 07/23/2022
4/5
…the details are persuasive, the mystery is satisfying; it might not have the hyped-pedigree of other shows, but The Lincoln Lawyer gets the job done, and in 2022, justice matters… Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Michelle S. @shelly33 Nov 8 Loved this season! Probably my favorite season. And the 3rd season was good too See more A.L.Jude P @judebd Nov 7 No Nonsense great series in every aspect. The unique character is that no one overstep the line to be marcho. See more Chad D Sep 24 I liked the movie and thought well I will give this a chance. I started watching it and was into it right away. Liked the main character and felt he did a great job. It was nice to see Neve Campbell again acting and just liked what was going on! I was entertained and wanted to watch more. Involved some real life stuff that can happen with how or why some lawyers might do what they do. Wasn't over the top and was good without special effects and explosions!! Can't wait to finish the rest of the seasons and hope it stays good! See more Jesse L. @JLemza9 Jul 30 Allows you to get right into the show and action. The plot twists and plot are just amazing. 5/5 See more VALORANTINHO Apr 8 The main character is interesting but the show lacks in supporting cast. The show also suffers from modern writing in Hollywood which is lazy storytelling and unimaginative ways to bring semi-realistic encounters to life which just devalues the whole made up world. See more Gregory p 01/05/2025 Excellent script, great performances, and excellent explanations of how a trial works. Every scene in the series is precise and necessary, the script is completely engaging, and the plot twists are excellent and make sense. I recommend it to anyone looking to watch a good series.
