Ben Keith ranked as Top Legal LinkedIn Influencer | Q2 2026 Results Table

The definitive ranking of the UK legal profession on LinkedIn: 1 April - 30 June 2026. Ranked, for the first time, on the 10x10.

The Barristers list is one of the most distinctive sections of this report, because the Bar operates under a fundamentally different model from solicitors' firms. Barristers are self-employed, their marketing has historically been restricted, and the culture of the profession has traditionally favoured discretion over visibility. LinkedIn challenges all of that, and the barristers who have embraced it are reaping the rewards.

Ranked by 10x10 each barrister's ten best posts, and Ben Keith of 5 St Andrew's Hill tops the list with 8,718, and also sits in third on the main list.

Ben Keith is a leading barrister specialising in cross-border and international cases. He deals with all aspects of Extradition, Human Rights, Mutual Legal Assistance, Interpol, Financial crime and International Law including sanctions. He represents governments, political and military leaders, High Net Worth individuals, human rights defenders and business leaders in the most sensitive cases.

He has extensive experience of appellate proceedings before the Administrative and Divisional Courts, Civil and Criminal Divisions of the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court as well as applications and appeals to the European Court of Human Rights, (ECHR) and United Nations.
