[Remote] Legal Researcher
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Litmas AI is a platform designed for litigation, helping law firms streamline the case lifecycle. The role of Case Law Researcher involves evaluating AI-generated legal outputs for accuracy and writing content on litigation and legal technology.
Responsibilities
- Evaluate the case law in AI-drafted motions, confirming that every case cited is real, accurately stated, and genuinely on point
- Review the substance of drafted motions, research, and analyses, and assess whether the reasoning and procedure would hold up in real litigation
- Validate legal accuracy, citation correctness, completeness, and whether the output follows the instructions a user gave the platform
- As each release goes out, work through the platform's output and confirm its quality has held
- Surface patterns where the platform falls short on legal substance, and give the product team clear, specific feedback so it can improve
- Help define and refine the standards the platform's output is held to across law practice areas such as personal injury, mass tort, and employment
- Write blog posts and LinkedIn thought leadership on litigation, legal technology, and how AI is changing the way cases are run
- Work from direction we provide. You are not expected to come up with the ideas, because we have the topics and the angles. You bring the writing and the legal credibility behind it
- Produce content that will be published under company leadership's name, written in their voice
- Hold every piece to the same accuracy and citation standard as the platform's output, subject to legal and brand review
Skills
- A U.S. licensed attorney in good standing, currently practising or very recently in practice
- Hands-on litigation experience. You have drafted motions, performed legal research, and you know citation and procedural standards cold
- Strong writing skills. Given a topic and a direction, you can turn it into clear, credible, well-cited content
- A sharp eye for detail and a low tolerance for 'close enough' on legal accuracy and citations
- The discipline to work independently and go deep on focused, detailed work. This role rewards concentration over visibility
- A working grasp of law practice areas such as personal injury, mass tort, and employment, or the ability to ramp quickly
- Appellate experience or a judicial clerkship
- Experience with contingency-fee or plaintiff-side litigation
- An existing portfolio of published legal, legal-tech, or thought-leadership writing
- Prior exposure to legal tech and AI tools
- Familiarity with issue trackers such as Linear or Jira
Benefits
- Fully remote, full-time position.
- Equity participation available as Litmas AI grows, with meaningful long-term upside.
