US Contract Attorney — Federal Litigation

We are looking for US Contract Attorney — Federal Litigation candidates for a project delivered through the hiring partner.

What you'll do

  • Read two motion briefs for the same case and pick the stronger one, with clear reasoning
  • Score each brief on a set of defined dimensions
  • Annotate the brief PDFs inline, flagging legal, factual, citation and drafting errors
  • Complete all the review as per the requirements
  • Attend a short onboarding session before kickoff

What you need

  • Are admitted to practice in at least one US state (active bar membership)
  • Have 3+ years of US litigation practice with substantial federal court experience, including drafting or opposing motions
  • Practice primarily in areas governed by federal law or litigated in federal court (practices focused mainly on state law, such as family law, are not a fit)
  • Hold a J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school
  • Write clearly and pay close attention to detail
  • You must complete all required reviews, as the project design depends on every attorney finishing the full set

Nice to have

  • 2+ years of experience at an AmLaw 100 firm
  • Prior work on legal AI projects with the hiring partner
  • Prior data annotation, AI evaluation or legal-benchmark experience
