Who Is Andy in The Lincoln Lawyer Season 2? Yaya DaCosta Character Explained

The Lincoln Lawyer is officially back for Season 2. A new season brings new cases for defense attorney Mickey Haller and, of course, a new cast of characters for him to deal with.

Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer follows defense attorney Mickey Haller (played by Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), who works in Los Angeles and is known for working out of a chaffeur-driven Lincoln Navigator. In Season 1, Haller rose to the occasion when a colleague of his was murdered, and all of his cases went to Haller, including one where a video game developer was accused of double homicide. Now with the case in the rearview mirror, Haller has a new challenge on his hands.

In Season 2, Haller aids a chef he met after a one night stand (played by Lana Parilla), who is accused of murdering a real estate developer she’d previously been at odds with. And in the new season, Haller must go head to head with a criminal attorney, Andy Freeman, determined to convict his client. After his success in Season 1, Haller’s reputation is now on the line.

But who plays the criminal prosecutor Haller goes up against? If you feel you’ve seen them before, you’re not alone. Here’s who plays Andy Freeman in The Lincoln Lawyer Season 2.
