Overview

Outlier seeks senior U.S. legal professionals for a short-term freelance project that creates AI training material for legal reasoning. You will write realistic prompts from several source or input files, then assess model answers for legal accuracy, realism, and proper use of those materials. The work draws on senior legal judgment across priority areas such as landlord-tenant law, family law, estate planning, contract law, and intellectual property. Attorneys, senior paralegals, and other legal specialists with hands-on experience in a listed practice area can qualify.

What You'll Do5

Draft realistic legal prompts that challenge model reasoning, using several source or input files as grounding.
Check model responses against the supplied materials for correct law, practical realism, and faithful use of facts.
Apply senior legal judgment to spot the relevant legal issues in each prompt and response.
Follow project guidance on prompt design, evaluation standards, and submission format.
Cover matters from priority practice areas, including housing, family law, consumer debt, employment, immigration, estate planning, public benefits, tax, contracts, real estate, intellectual property, personal injury, and insurance claims.

Requirements4

5+ years of professional legal experience under U.S. law in at least one priority practice area.
A U.S. J.D. and/or admission to a U.S. state bar for attorney candidates.
Senior paralegals and other legal specialists can qualify with substantive, hands-on work in a priority practice area.
Ability to identify relevant legal issues and apply senior professional judgment.

Preferred Qualifications1

Current or recent legal practice in a priority practice area.

Who Should Apply

Attorneys with 5+ years of U.S. legal experience in housing, family, consumer, employment, immigration, estate, tax, contracts, real estate, IP, personal injury, or insurance matters. Senior paralegals and legal specialists with substantive hands-on work in one of those areas also fit.

Salary Insight

$105 USD per hour. That rate fits senior U.S. legal professionals with 5+ years of practice, and the freelance format pays for project work rather than a salaried role.
