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.
Graeme Blundell The Australian It’s all entertainingly diverting, even if the series lacks the kind of existential bleakness, the self-conscious humourlessness... Jul 29, 2023 Full Review Nina Metz Chicago Tribune It’s pretty good and frequently satisfying. That’s more than I can say about a lot of television. Rated: 3/4 May 17, 2022 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times No objection here if Netflix wants to provide a well-acted throwback series complete with likable anti-heroes and colorful suspects. Rated: 3/4 May 14, 2022 Full Review Gissane Sophia Marvelous Geeks Media It’s a riveting, impressive new take on Michael Connelly’s novels that’s worth watching whether you’ve read them or not. Jul 23, 2023 Full Review Pete Vonder Haar Houston Press Developed by prolific producer David E. Kelley, The Lincoln Lawyer 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. Sep 16, 2022 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …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… Rated: 4/5 Jul 23, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
Gregory p 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/05/25 Full Review Jack H Ok. But his accent was difficult, kept changing so very distracting. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/11/24 Full Review Dmitriy A good season recommended Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Venkat R Addicting and edge of the seat drama. Easy to get hooked and quite likely to finish watching in a single day. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review O M I wanted to like this. Why call this Lincoln Lawyer and change everything that actually made the Lincoln Lawyer good. Instead of changing the original for the sake of political correctness, why not just name the show something else. I have read all the books and watched the movie. I couldn't stomach more than 30 minutes of the first episode. The crying, the unnecessary accents, the weak and desperate tone, bad acting, poorly written and predictable script the changing of the original characters, the "Team work", it was all so disappointing. This is like portraying James Bond a family man!! I am assuming people who like this series, have never seen or read the Lincoln Lawyer series. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review Tiffany O MUST WATCH! The first episode grabbed my attention like a chocolate cake! It's the kind of show that makes you say, “One more episode,” and then you realise it's 5 a.m. Be prepared to be on the edge of your seat. It is an intriguing and addictive drama; you will not be disappointed! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews
