A new trailer for The Lincoln Lawyer season 2 ended with Mickey meeting with Julian La Cosse (Devon Graye), someone accused of murdering a woman named Giselle Dallinger who claimed to know the lawyer. The final scene of the episode reveals the woman to be Gloria Dayton (Fiona Rene), a prostitute who went by the name Glory Days and who testified during Jésus Menendez's case in season 1, and who became the protagonist's friend.

Now, Netflix has released the trailer for The Lincoln Lawyer season 3, teasing Mickey dealing with the aftermath of learning Gloria is dead, and her accused murderer wants him to prove his innocence. The trailer teases a potential conspiracy surrounding her murder, with someone trying to frame Julian for the murder. Between a court scene that breaks out into a fight and Mickey coordinating with his team, he's also threatened by an ex-cop who has bad blood with the defense attorney.

The trailer continues by teasing a larger story surrounding Gloria's murder, which is expected to bring plenty of new characters into the forefront. As for his team, the show teases the return of Izzy (Jazz Raycole) despite her no longer being Mickey's driver, and Cisco (Angus Sampson) scouring for clues about the case. The trailer ends with the lawyer's car getting run off the road, hinting at just how dangerous and personal this new season is going to become. Check out the trailer here:

What The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3 Trailer Says About The Show

This Might Be Mickey's Most Dangerous Case Yet

The Lincoln Lawyer season 3 is based on The Gods of Guilt, the fifth book in Michael Connelly's book series following Mickey and his cases. While not many concrete details about the potential conspiracy around Gloria's murder have been revealed, it's clear the lawyer is going to be in more danger than ever before by pursuing his defense of Julian. From finding a rattlesnake under his pillow to potentially being watched by someone unknown, it appears there will be major forces at work trying to keep him from figuring out who really killed his friend.

The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3 Just Got Way More Exciting Thanks To This Character's Return

The Lincoln Lawyer season 3 has already been highly anticipated, and it managed to get even more exciting thanks to this character's return.

It also seems the cast of The Lincoln Lawyer consisting of Mickey's team will be more active than ever before in the case, but also in their personal lives. This includes Izzy continuing to follow her dream as a dance instructor, alongside Cisco and Lorna (Becki Newton) getting used to their life after getting married. A more personal story for the main character could also be in the cards, as Neve Campbell is expected to return as his first wife, Maggie Mherson, in a recurring capacity. All these elements could shape the show's most harrowing case so far.

The Lincoln Lawyer author Michael Connelly also wrote the Harry Bosch series, which has been adapted into an ongoing TV show on Freevee.

The Show Is Going In A Personal Direction For Mickey

With plenty of conspiratorial intrigue mixed with potential action scenes as Mickey gets targeted, The Lincoln Lawyer is promising a very personal story throughout season 3. It's still unclear how Gloria's murder will impact his ability to defend Julian, especially if he's not entirely sure at first if his client really killed his friend. With the Netflix legal drama, however, there have always been plenty of wild twists and turns, something that will likely carry over into the newest episodes on October 17.
