- Mick Haller: When do you retire, Lankford?
- Detective Lankford: When do I retire?
- Mick Haller: Yeah.
- Detective Lankford: Eighteen months. Why?
- Mick Haller: I wanna make sure I show up the next morning so I can kick your ass.
- Earl: You know what? You would've done all right on the streets.
- Mick Haller: Shit. Where do you think I am, Earl?
- [last lines]
- Mick Haller: I tell you what Eddie, how about I do this one for free?
- Eddie Vogel: [gestures at him and leaves]
- Earl: Are you sure you're feeling all right?
- Mick Haller: Repeat customers, Earl. We'll stick it to 'em next time...
- Eddie Vogel: You really shoot your client's mother?
- Mick Haller: Damn right I did. She shot me first.
- Earl: [Sung to the tune of "You're Nobody 'Til SomeBody Loves You," while picking Mick up from the hospital] You're nobody 'til somebody shoots you.
- Mick Haller: Maggie, you know what I used to be afraid of Maggie?
- Maggie McPherson: Yeah, me.
- Mick Haller: That I wouldn't recognize innocence. That it would be right there in front of me and I just wouldn't see it.
- Maggie McPherson: Yeah...
- Mick Haller: I'm not talking about guilty or not guilty; just, just innocence. Know what I'm afraid of now?
- [Maggie shakes head]
- Mick Haller: Evil. Pure Evil.
- Eddie Vogel: [from trailer] Counsellor?
- Mick Haller: Eddie, we had a deal. Either you pay me, or go with a public defender.
- Eddie Vogel: How 'bout five grand?
- Mick Haller: Ten.
- [Eddie then hands Mick a brown envelope, presumably with money in it. Mick shakes the envelope]
- Eddie Vogel: Ain't you gonna count it?
- Mick Haller: I just did.
- Frank Levin: [looking out of top floor window] You're so vain. Nobody would care if you killed yourself.
- Mick Haller: It'd look cool. What do you think the last thing to go through your mind would be?
- Frank Levin: Your asshole.
- Mick Haller: Yeah.
- Mick Haller: You know what my father always said about an innocent client?
- Frank Levin: [sarcastically] No, I've never heard this...
- [Mick, armed with a baseball bat, discovers Louis has broken into his house]
- Louis Roulet: [sitting casually in Mick's home office] If you're wondering how I got in, I'm in real estate, so if I want to get into a friend's house...
- Mick Haller: No, we're not friends. You're my client. And I'm your lawyer.
- Louis Roulet: My lawyer. See, that's exactly what I wanted to remind you of. I'm about to go on trial, and yet I couldn't reach you. Now I find out where you were all day. Heard you tell Maggie.
- Mick Haller: You shit.
- Louis Roulet: You went to see Jesus Martinez. And I know what you talked about: Donna Renteria. You're right, Mick. I killed her. There. No reason I shouldn't tell my own lawyer since it's all confidential. Attorney-client privilege. Isn't that what you told me?
- Mick Haller: It's time for you to go, Louis.
- Louis Roulet: Alright.
- [He sits up, finishes his drink, and stands up. He notices a framed picture of Mick & his daughter Hayley on Mick's desk]
- Louis Roulet: [walks out into the living room] That's a cute picture of your daughter Hayley. She's very pretty. She's got soccer practice tomorrow, right?
- Mick Haller: [following Louis] Don't.
- Louis Roulet: [pretending to be confused] Don't what?
- Mick Haller: [gets in Louis' face] You think you're the first client to threaten me and my family? Huh?
- Louis Roulet: All I said was she's pretty.
- Mick Haller: Are you scared, Louis? Because where you are right now, you're in a very dangerous place.
- [He opens the front door and Louis leaves]
- Frank Levin: Jesus, Mick, are you starting to think Louis is innocent?
- Mick Haller: He just might. Besides, you know, my father always said about an innocent client.
- Frank Levin: No, I've never heard this. Hi...
- Maggie McPherson: He said 'there's no client as scary as an innocent man'.
- Mick Haller: That's right. 'Cos if you screw up and he goes to prison... You're never gonna be able to live with yourself.
- Detective Kurlen: [to Haller in crowded elevator] How does someone like you sleep at night with all the scum you represent?
- Mick Haller: [sitting on Maggie's front porch as Louis approaches him] Hello, Louis. My family's here.
- Louis Roulet: I know.
- Mick Haller: You bring your knife? My gun?
- Louis Roulet: Maybe.
- Mick Haller: Good.
- [pulls his new gun out of his coat pocket]
- Mick Haller: 'Cause I brought this. You've got one chance to turn around and leave.
- Louis Roulet: [stepping closer] And then what? You gonna keep coming back every night? Every day? Or just try to get me sent up to San Quentin like Jesus Martinez?
- Mick Haller: No. I'm not quitting until Martinez is free and you're convicted of murder. And when that needle goes in your arm, that will be me.
- [nods]
- Louis Roulet: [as a commuter train passes by in the background] Well, why don't you just shoot me right now?
- Mick Haller: I don't think I'll have to.
- [looks out towards the street]
- Louis Roulet: [turns around] Hey!
- [Eddie Vogel and his biker gang pull up and start vandalizing Louis' car with baseball bats]
- Louis Roulet: That's my car!
- [a biker rides up from behind and hits Louis with a baseball bat, knocking him to the sidewalk]
- Biker: It's Louis' car, man!
- [the bikers continue vandalizing Louis' car as Mick gets up and walks to the street]
- Biker: Come on, now. Get him up. Get up!
- [another biker grabs Louis and drags him out into the middle of the street]
- Mick Haller: Hospital, not the morgue.
- [Eddie gives Mick a two-finger salute as his posse beats up Louis and Mick walks away]
- Mick Haller: Do you know the difference between a Maserati and a Range Rover?
- Reggie Campo: One is small and one is big, I guess.
