Overview
Outlier seeks U.S. legal professionals for a freelance AI-training project. The work centers on drafting hard legal prompts from several input files and judging model answers for accuracy, legal realism, and fidelity to those materials. Priority areas span landlord-tenant law, family law, estate planning, and consumer debt, along with other individual and public legal matters. Attorneys, paralegals, and legal specialists with hands-on U.S. practice can apply, and the role pays $75 per hour.
What You'll Do7
- Draft realistic legal prompts that challenge model reasoning and draw on multiple source files.
- Evaluate model responses against the source materials, checking legal accuracy, realism, and proper use of cited inputs.
- Identify key legal issues in each scenario and apply professional judgment to guide the evaluation.
- Follow project guidance on prompt design, evaluation criteria, and submission format.
- Review outputs across priority practice areas such as housing, family law, consumer debt, and immigration.
- Flag answers that misstate law, miss material facts, or rely on unsupported claims.
- Compare model answers with governing U.S. law and the provided records.
Requirements6
- 2 to 5 years of professional legal experience under U.S. law.
- Practice history in at least one priority area, such as landlord-tenant, family law, consumer debt, immigration, estate planning, or tax.
- Attorneys hold a U.S. J.D., admission to a U.S. state bar, or both.
- Paralegals and legal specialists qualify through substantive, hands-on work in a priority practice area.
- Strong legal writing and contract law knowledge.
- Comfort reviewing model outputs against source files and legal authority.
Preferred Qualifications1
- Current or recent legal practice.
Who Should Apply
U.S. attorneys, paralegals, and legal specialists with 2 to 5 years of practice in housing, family, consumer debt, immigration, estate planning, tax, or related priority areas. Candidates should bring strong legal writing, contract law knowledge, and comfort with evaluating model outputs against source files.
Salary Insight
The posting lists $75 per hour for freelance work. That rate aligns with a project that calls for practicing-level legal judgment and priority-area knowledge, not basic document review.
