• Build tasks across commercial litigation, complex and class action litigation, discovery and evidence management, trial advocacy, and appellate practice.
• Develop scenarios using tools such as e-discovery platforms (Relativity, Everlaw), litigation management software, and deposition/trial preparation tools.
• Apply litigation methodologies to standards tracks (US: FRCP, Federal Rules of Evidence, state court rules; International: CPR, international arbitration rules) and produce reference pleadings, discovery responses, motions, and trial memoranda.
• Author rubrics that distinguish authentic litigation judgment from generic law school or bar exam-level recall.

Qualifications

• 5+ years working as a litigator or trial attorney at a major litigation firm or corporate litigation department.
• Direct ownership of complex commercial litigation matters, with trial or arbitration experience.
• Fluency in litigation tooling and methodologies, plus understanding of how court procedure, discovery, and evidentiary rules actually work.
