The Lincoln Lawyer is a 2005 Law Procedural novel by Michael Connelly, the first in a series featuring Mickey Haller.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Mickey Haller is a comfortably Amoral Attorney, gladly defending his lawless clientele even when he knows they're guilty. He is also extremely competent, and his services command substantial fees. His trademark: the beaten-up old Lincoln he rides around in. His willingness to defend known criminals has given him a reputation, and that reputation is about to get him tangled up in some serious trouble...Enter Louis Roulet, a rich trust fund kid accused of attempting to rape and murder a young woman he met at a bar. With his wealthy parents' money, Roulet retains Haller as a lawyer. Roulet insists that he is absolutely innocent, but the young lady tells a different story. Within a few days revelations from both sides of the case send things spiraling out of control, and Mickey Haller finds himself and his loved ones in serious danger but struggling to defend them due to the machinations of a dangerous psychopath. But perhaps the would-be mastermind has underestimated the cunning of the Lincoln Lawyer...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In 2011 The Lincoln Lawyer was adapted as a film directed by Brad Furman, starring Matthew McConaughey as Haller, with Marisa Tomei as Haller's ex-wife Maggie McPherson , Ryan Phillippe as Louis Roulet, William H. Macy as Frank Levin, Bryan Cranston as Detective Lankford, Katherine Moennig as Gloria, Shea Whigham as prison snitch DJ Corliss, and Bob Gunton as Cecil Dobbs.

Alliterative Title: The two most important words in the title both start with with L, although the word "the" does not.
