You can do this with the position property. It takes an array as an argument, with the first two arguments being the position and the last two being the width and height of the legend. Therefore, you can make the legend narrower by a factor of e.g. 0.75 by calling

lg1 = legend ({'filter oth_eq', 'UnFiltred','Filtred','OneContract','UnFiltred_2'}, 'location', 'northwest');

posvec_lg1 = get(lg1,"position");
set(lg1,"position",[posvec_lg1(1),posvec_lg1(2),0.75*posvec_lg1(3),posvec_lg1(4)]);
