The Lincoln Lawyer season four has almost arrived and now Netflix has dropped its explosive official trailer.

Lawyer Mickey Haller (played by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) was on top of the world by the end of series three – that is until the body of former client Sam Scales (Christopher Thornton) was found by police in the boot of his car.

Based on author Michael Connelly’s novel The Law of Innocence, The Lincoln Lawyer season four will drop on Thursday, February 5, with Netflix releasing its gripping official trailer.

“Every murder case is like a tree”, Mickey’s voiceover begins.

“And it’s the prosecutor’s job to feed and water that tree. I’m the man with the axe. I’m gonna cut that tree down to the ground.”

Lorna Crane (Becki Newton) describes her ex-husband as psychotically optimistic despite being behind bars before he is shown being attacked in prison.

Fans are then introduced to newcomer Dana Berg, a ruthless prosecutor portrayed by actress Constance Zimmer, who seems to be determined to send Mickey down.

Elsewhere, Mickey explains that his “victim” Sam was running a long con and that it would be up to him and his team to find out what he was up to, believing that it could lead to the real killer.

Mickey exclaims that he is going to “play hardball” as the teaser shows a series of clips from the upcoming series, including one where a mystery individual is pointing a gun at the back of Cisco’s (Angus Sampson) head.

But could the lovable biker turned private investigator’s life really be in danger?

Zimmer isn’t the only new face introduced in season four either with the trailer showing NCIS legend Sasha Alexander for the first time as FBI Agent Dawn Ruth.

She is seen telling Mickey: “You think you’re smart? You have no idea what you’re getting yourself into.”

Since dropping, fans have been flocking to YouTube’s comments section to express their joy at the show’s return.

“Going to be an intense season”, a fan commented as someone else said: “Man that looks awesome can’t wait for season four.”

A plethora of users said they “can’t wait” and “finally!” while another exclaimed: “About time” Let’s do this!”
