Remote | Lawyer/Legal Writer — \$90–\$140/hour

About the position

We are sharing a specialised consulting opportunity for experienced Lawyer/Legal Writers with strong expertise in legal writing, document review, critical analysis, content evaluation, editing, and written legal communication to contribute to an advanced AI training and legal-content evaluation project. Selected professionals will assess AI-generated legal and technical writing, evaluate precision and audience suitability, identify unsupported or overstated claims, and provide structured written rationales grounded in professional legal judgement. This is an evaluative engagement focused on written content rather than legal advice or representation. No prior experience in AI is required.

Responsibilities

• Apply consistent professional judgement across repeated evaluation tasks
• Review unsupported claims, unwarranted overstatements, and weak legal reasoning
• Detect factual inaccuracies, ambiguities, and internal inconsistencies
• Assess whether authoritative-sounding content is adequately supported
• Review arguments for logical coherence and appropriate qualification
• Flag issues that could affect reliability, usability, or interpretation
• Apply defined evaluation criteria and project guidelines consistently
• Assign analytical quality scores to written responses
• Compare competing outputs and distinguish stronger from weaker reasoning
• Evaluate responses against standards for accuracy, usefulness, and audience fit
• Maintain objective and repeatable assessment practices across assignments
• Produce detailed written rationales explaining assessment decisions
• Clearly articulate why particular responses are accurate, incomplete, or problematic
• Document findings and observations thoroughly in digital review platforms
• Maintain clear records of scoring and evaluation decisions
• Communicate complex legal-writing judgements concisely and professionally
• Apply experience from drafting and reviewing briefs, motions, memoranda, opinions, or regulatory submissions
• Edit and assess written legal content for structure, clarity, and precision
• Collaborate asynchronously with project managers and reviewers
• Support consistent evaluation standards across project contributors
• Work independently while meeting assigned deadlines and quality expectations

• Strong legal-writing, document-review, and content-evaluation skills
• Ability to assess whether writing is appropriately tailored for different audiences
• Exceptional attention to detail and critical-analysis ability
• Excellent written communication and editing skills
• Strong judgement around precision, qualification, and unsupported assertions
• Comfortable applying structured evaluation criteria and documenting decisions
