The Lincoln Lawyer (2005)

Mickey Haller has spent all
his professional life afraid that he wouldn't recognize innocence if it
stood right in front of him. But what he should have been on the watch
for was
evil.

Haller is a
Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense attorney who operates out of the
back seat of his Lincoln Town Car, traveling between the far-flung
courthouses of Los
Angeles to defend clients of
every kind. Bikers, con artists, drunk drivers, drug dealers they're
all on Mickey Haller's client list. For him, the law is rarely about
guilt or innocence
it's about negotiation and
manipulation. Sometimes it's even about justice.

A Beverly
Hills playboy arrested for attacking a woman he picked up in a bar
chooses Haller to
defend him, and Mickey has
his first high-paying client in years. It is a defense attorney's dream,
what they call a franchise case. And as the evidence stacks up, Haller
comes to believe this may be the
easiest case of his career.

Then
someone close to him is murdered and Haller discovers that his search
for innocence has brought him face-to-face with evil as pure as a
flame. To escape without
being burned, he must deploy every tactic, feint, and instinct in his
arsenal this time to save his own life.
