Responsibilities
Your tasks
Apply your cite-checking and legal research expertise to a short, high-intensity project
Role Title: Paralegal / Law Student —Legal Research
Role Type: Contractor
What you’ll do
- Apply Bluebook rules and verify citations with precision across a range of source types.
- Conduct legal research and confirm that sources support the propositions cited.
- Work through research and citation tasks under defined guidelines, applying them consistently.
- Explain your reasoning — why a citation is wrong, not just that it is.
- Flag ambiguous cases to project coordinators instead of resolving them silently.
- Deliver assigned work on schedule and at the required quality level.
Requirements
- Paralegal certification (NALA, NFPA, or NALS), a certificate from an ABA-approved program, or current enrollment in law school.
- 3–5 years of hands-on paralegal experience is the sweet spot, though we’re open on either side if your citation work is current.
- Current, active cite-checking and legal research practice — this is more important to us than total years.
- Strong working knowledge of The Bluebook: pincites, short forms, signals, and parentheticals.
- Law review or law journal experience is a strong plus.
- Graduates of highly ranked law schools or paralegal programs are especially encouraged to apply.
- Available to work over the next two weeks, starting within 24–48 hours of onboarding.
