A new full-time remote opportunity for law graduates and final-year law students is available for candidates interested in legal research, drafting and case support for U.S. clients.
The role offers the opportunity to work directly with clients in the United States while working remotely. Candidates will be expected to handle legal research, prepare legal documents and provide case-related support.
An important feature of the role is the use of AI tools in everyday legal work. The opportunity is therefore particularly suited to candidates who are already comfortable using AI tools for legal research and drafting.
About the Role
The position is full-time and fully remote, with the selected candidate working directly with U.S. clients.
The work will involve legal research, legal drafting and case support. Since the role involves interaction with U.S. clients, applicants should also be comfortable communicating professionally and working with clients remotely.
Candidates should be prepared to work with a degree of overlap with U.S. time zones.
The position may be suitable for law graduates looking to gain international legal-work exposure, particularly those interested in remote legal support, legal research and technology-assisted legal workflows.
Who Can Apply?
Applicants should have an LLB or other law degree, either completed or in the final year of study.
The role is open to candidates who can demonstrate strong legal research and drafting abilities. Previous paralegal or legal support experience is considered an advantage but is not mandatory.
The hiring requirements place greater emphasis on accuracy, discipline and the ability to communicate and write clearly and professionally.
AI Skills Are Important
Candidates applying for this position should already be comfortable using AI tools for legal research and drafting.
AI is described as part of the day-to-day workflow for the role. Applicants are therefore expected to have practical familiarity with using such tools rather than approaching the position as an opportunity to learn AI from the beginning.
Candidates should understand that AI-assisted legal work still requires careful review, verification and professional judgement. Accuracy is particularly important when conducting legal research or preparing documents for clients.
Legal Research and Drafting Skills
Strong legal research and drafting skills are among the key requirements for the position.
The selected candidate will be expected to research legal issues and prepare written work in a clear and professional manner. Attention to detail will be important because the role involves providing legal support to U.S. clients.
Applicants should be able to understand legal questions, locate relevant information through online research and communicate their findings effectively.
Client Communication
The role also requires confident client handling and communication skills.
Since the successful candidate will work directly with U.S. clients, professional communication will be an important part of the position. Applicants should be comfortable communicating clearly, responding to client requirements and maintaining a professional approach while working remotely.
Strong written communication will be particularly useful for candidates involved in legal drafting and online client interactions.
Technical Requirements
Applicants should be proficient in Microsoft Word and comfortable carrying out online and Google-based research.
As this is a fully remote position, candidates must also have their own laptop and a stable and reliable internet connection.
Applicants should be able to work independently and maintain consistent availability during the required working hours.
Full-Time Availability Required
The position is a full-time opportunity.
Candidates must be available to work with sufficient overlap with U.S. time zones. Applicants considering the role should therefore ensure that they can accommodate the required working schedule before applying.
The remote nature of the position allows the selected candidate to work from their own location while supporting legal matters involving U.S. clients.
Prior Experience Is Not Mandatory
One of the notable aspects of the opportunity is that previous paralegal or legal support experience is a plus but not a requirement.
This means law students in their final year and recent law graduates with the required skills may also consider applying.
The hiring announcement places emphasis on qualities such as accuracy, discipline and clear professional writing. Candidates who can demonstrate these qualities along with strong research and drafting skills may be well suited to the position.
