rate as listed

Workload: ~15h/week
Engagement: Project-based
Location: Worldwide
Field: Legal

Review corporate transactions, commercial litigation materials and legal drafting to help train and evaluate AI systems. This remote contractor role is aimed at attorneys with recent top-tier BigLaw experience in high-value corporate matters.

The work

You will review complex corporate documents, contracts and deal structures involving mergers and acquisitions, private equity and capital markets. Assignments may include assessing nuanced legal scenarios, analyzing commercial litigation materials, identifying legal and procedural issues, and critiquing drafting or legal reasoning.

How quality is judged

Deliverables can involve annotating and categorizing legal data, explaining issue classifications, and applying project rubrics consistently. The platform is likely to screen for specific examples of sophisticated transactional or litigation work, accurate issue spotting, familiarity with US legal practice, and the ability to explain why a legal answer or drafting approach is sound. Prior legal data annotation or rubric-based review is preferred but not required, and no prior AI experience is required.

Working arrangement

This is a remote contractor engagement with asynchronous collaboration among project managers and internal reviewers. Typical weekly hours and project duration are not disclosed, so candidates should be ready to state their realistic availability and any constraints on handling confidential or conflict-sensitive legal material.

Pay band: $140–400/hr

Matched to what this platform's screening actually measures. Answer each out loud in 60–90 seconds: claim → concrete example → implication.

What it tests: This verifies whether the candidate's BigLaw experience is current or within the last 3 years and distinguishes direct matter responsibility from peripheral exposure.
A strong answer: Give the firm context, practice group, dates, seniority and representative responsibilities without disclosing client confidences. Clarify which matters you personally drafted, negotiated, reviewed or managed.
Where people lose it: Candidates lose points by naming broad practice areas without dates or by describing team accomplishments without identifying their own work.
