Legal Cheek


Legal Cheek is a popular British legal news website that is styled by some as a "tabloid". It also has a careers section featuring research about law firms and barrister chambers and a large following on social media. Founded by former Guardian journalist Alex Aldridge in 2011, Legal Cheek initially operated out of Aldridge's apartment in London. Aldridge has a background in law after training as a barrister.

In 2012 Legal Cheek was forced to issue an apology for using an incorrect photo in an article about a dispute between two barristers. In an interview after this had taken place, Aldridge admitted there had been a "lawsuit" and pledged to think harder about "accountability".

In 2014 Legal Cheek conducted the first ever interview with Judge Rinder, the barrister who would go on to find fame on Strictly Come Dancing.

Legal Cheek is often cited in the UK media, including the BBC, the Daily Mail and The Independent and The Telegraph

As of 2016 Legal Cheek has two staff writers, Tom Connelly and Katie King, and various columnists including Joshua Rozenberg, the former BBC legal correspondent, and Will Buckley, the former Observer journalist.
