Our Goals

​

Newell Legal is a blog which primarily focuses on legal developments within the UK. Our goal is to raise awareness about legal developments and current affairs, and particularly, how they can affect the general public. This, of course, requires consideration of both sides of the argument. Therefore, we look at both the positives and negatives. We are hoping to achieve this in a number of ways:

​

• The Blog

  • Through the use of regular blog posts, we aim to bring important issues to the forefront of the minds of the general public with an in-depth exploration of those issues.

​

• Our Facebook Page and Twitter Posts

  • We feel that social media is a powerful tool, which can bring about change very quickly. By incorporating our Facebook and Twitter accounts, we hope to highlight updates and recent news from leading journalistic establishments.​​​​​

​

• Interviews

  • We hope to implement this at a later stage, with a particular focus on legislative developments and how they could impact the public on a day to day basis.

Our History

​

Newell Legal was originally founded in August 2016. The focus was going to be solely on legal developments in the UK, exploring both changes in legislation and recently decided case law, with Jake providing those updates with an opinion attached to each post.

​

Newell Legal has previously reported, through contributors, on a variety of issues including: legal developments on an international level, political developments, updates within the economic and finance sector and also provide insight in particular into political and human rights issues in Africa. Newell Legal was rebranded and subsequently revived in 2025 after a hiatus.

​​​

The Editorial Team (found here) are tasked with the overall running of Newell Legal as well as publishing articles.
