Editorial Standards

Our Commitment to Accuracy, Fairness, and Transparency

At LegalNotLegal, we take our responsibility to our readers seriously. Our editorial standards are built around the belief that clear, accurate information about law and politics empowers people to make better decisions about their lives and their communities.

We are committed to providing news that is factual, balanced, and accessible; without unnecessary complexity, bias, or sensationalism.


How We Ensure Quality

1. Research and Fact-Checking
Every article we publish is based on reputable sources, including official government documents, court records, academic research, and sourcing from recognized experts. We verify facts before publication and cross-reference important claims.

2. Clear and Accessible Writing
Legal and political topics can be complicated — but we believe they shouldn’t be confusing. We focus on writing in plain language while maintaining the accuracy and context that our readers deserve.

3. Independence and Objectivity
LegalNotLegal is independently owned and operated by BoxLabs. Our editorial decisions are made without influence from advertisers, political parties, or outside organizations. We strive to present issues fairly, giving readers the information they need to form their own opinions.

4. Transparency and Corrections
If an error is identified in our reporting, we are committed to correcting it quickly and clearly. Corrections will be noted at the bottom of the article or, when necessary, in a follow-up update.


Authorship and Accountability

Our content is published under the editorial voice of Jordan Chase, representing a team of experienced legal researchers, policy analysts, and journalists. Every piece of content is reviewed for accuracy, clarity, and fairness before it is published.
